Sands in the hourglass fall for us all 

You don't answer me anymore when I call 

So much is trapped inside, tangled in your brain 

It's getting cold outside and it looks like rain 

The sky is falling and my heart is caving in 



So, now the time has come to say the long goodbye 

The setting of the sun reflecting in your eyes 

Day after day after day the world will pass you by, 

You forget to remember 



If this is living, what the hell is living for? 

You've boarded up your eyes, your mind has locked the door 

I'm just a stranger now with an unfamiliar face 

You can't recall me at all, 

There's not a trace... not a trace... not a trace 

I don't know where you are and my world is crumbling in 



So, now the time has come to say the long goodbye 

The setting of the sun reflecting in your eyes 

Day after day after day the world will pass you by, 

You forget to remember 



I just want to talk - What do you want? 

But you've nothing to say - Leave me alone 

I beg you to come - Get away from me 

And you just walk away - I have no idea who you are! 

I curse the day that your smile fades away, till then I pray 



A burning candle in-between and at both ends 

With all that we've learned, yet we still pretend 

I just wish you could say my name again 



They made the lock and broke the key, 

The culprit was the mercury 

The vaccine wipes your memories, 

Till you forget even how to breathe 

A tangled web they weave, when they practice to deceive 



So, now the time has come to say the long goodbye 

The setting of the sun reflecting in your eyes 

Day after day after day the world will pass you by 

I said that I'd be strong, but you know I had to lie 



You forget to remember... it's time to say the long goodbye
