Farewell Mrs. Hope
I reached a point of no return
Too weak to fight, to old to learn
Reflected flames blinding the eye
One more tear for one more try

I'm haunted by specters
And plagued by the past
Placing their bets
On how long I will last

The cards have been played
The coin has been tossed
The house has won and I will pay the cost

Goodbye, goodbye Mrs. Hope
I know you try but you can't keep me hanging on
I lived this life as a man would do
Don't cry for me my dear
My cross was just to hard to bear

No need for fear, no time for wrath
I made my choice, I'll walk this path
No place in heaven left for me
But sure as hell, hell won't want me
I'm through with your fake smiles
I'm done with your lies
Can't stand your presence
Can't bear the shame
I never asked to be this way
But at least I decide when to fade away

Goodbye, goodbye Mrs. Hope
I know you try but you can't keep me hanging on
I lived this life as a man would do
Don't cry for me my dear
My cross was just to hard to bear

Every door you slam shut
Leads you further away
Everyone time let loose
You're the one to be blamed
Accept what you got
Don't let go of your path
Swallow your fears and show them your wrath

Goodbye, goodbye Mrs. Hope
I know you try but you can't keep me hanging on
I lived this life as a man would do
Don't cry for me my dear
My cross was just to hard to bear
