[verse 1]
down the hill from where i learned to read and write
there’s a face i’m supposed to answer to
my countenance tells of a million plights
but that couldn’t be farther from the truth

[verse 2]
i don’t want to talk about numbers now
i would rather forget the whole night
you wouldn’t get it if i were to dumb it down
so let’s drop it and save us another fight

[refrain]
i’ll say goodbye
but you just won’t die

[verse 3]
there’s the bleachers we threw wildflowers on
or the ones where you could say it all began
while time has proven that some bonds
are made to break, others to withstand

[verse 4]
past the statue famed in obscurity
to the park with its familiar obelisks
to the deserted island of concrete
when the sun is working a double shift
[refrain]
when i say goodbye
please don’t die

[verse 5]
there are blackberries strewn across the ground
where you tried to banish me years ago
i fear there was no other way around
so i stepped on them and let it go

[verse 6]
in the corridors turning a blind eye
to the only h+llo’s i’d ever get
if i wanted to live as a poltergeist
i wouldn’t have any training left

[refrain]
when i say goodbye
can you see i tried?

[verse 7]
do you see what i see when you look at them?
how time has weathered their effigies?
do they care if i remember them?
do i care if they will remember me?
[verse 8]
i want to talk about numbers now
how they approach faster with every year
how the tension is foremost and paramount
until to their senses they do appear

[refrain]
you get one life
