Goodbye
For the instructions for disappearing Challenge
Step one:
Brush it off
let it die
All that feeling
Let it sigh
>
Step two: repeat these words, don’t deny
<~>~~~~>~~~~>—+++——-+-++<~>~~~~>~~~~>~~~~~>
Danger is in the heart of holding on
It's not so hard to let the garment fall
Wipe all the things you want to do, away
>
No play at work in school you cannot stay
Blue skies they don’t exist so take a trip
Danger is in the heart of holding on
>
Laughter is not the place where you belong
When friends would stick around and hold you close
Wipe all the things you want to do, away
<~>~~~~>~~~~>—+++——-+-++<~>~~~~>~~~~>~~~~~>
Step 3:
STOP!
>
All that singing
>
Start, when you’re brimming
The hate within is stinging
Leave with all the trust and clinging
>
Don’t pick up the phone, it’s ringing
<~>~~~~>~~~~>—+++——-+-++<~>~~~~>~~~~>~~~~~>
Step 4:
Leave, when the time is chilly
Everyone is F**king busy
Take a jacket black as night
A hood without a stripe
Keep it up
Erase the fright
Don't forget
Your friends and family
That is what you’ll leave behind
Not the things that you despise
Hi
Hello
And then
Goodbye
