Upon My Departure

[Verse 1]
When the final bell is rung
And the game's declared over
We speak the words goodbye
And I know it's forever
An empty pit inside my chest
Was more than a small clue
No you'll never see me again
Something I gotta get used to
But you left much behind
Some peace and vital signs
Food for a busy mind
And souvenirs to hold tight

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Just a passenger on your jetliner
Crashing to the ground
But the impact doesn't make a sound

[Verse 2]
Well a lesson to be learned
From your departure
Funny thing but when you went away
I lost part of my cure
And now I'm searching hard
Underneath every card
Hoping with best regards
You'll bail me out of this dream state

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh but what I feel
Unfortunately is real
Feeling the sting of pain
Not a damn thing can erase the stain

[Chorus]
I'm leaving here
And you'll know why when I'm gone
I'm leaving here
Translate your knowledge to this song
I won't forget
While I was a man to miss
While I'm glad we shared a glass
I gave something to your soul
And you gave me more than you will ever know

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre Chorus 3]
All my senses clear
Do I feel it here?
Sometimes the past is insincere

[Chorus]
I'm leaving here
And you'll know why when I'm gone
I'm leaving here
Translate your knowledge to this song
I won't forget
Forget why I was a man to miss
While I'm glad we shared a glass
I gave something to your soul
And you gave me more than you will ever know
Than you will ever know
Than you will ever know
Than you will ever know
Than you will ever know
Than you will ever know
Than you will ever know
Than you will ever know...
