Consider This Goodbye

God I know I promise that no matter what,

I will always keep you close to my side,

And to, never allow a full moon to take control,

Or to reawaken my tide,

Look, deeply into your eyes beyond these doubts,

Once wide awake they'll realize,

That I was, your radiance but I can be there no longer,

So consider this goodbye,

If I could take the images within my head and have them painted,

What I fear the most that I'm the product of something dangerous,

They even told me careful who you open your heart to,

Cause what's hidden the snakes venom it's harmful,

Notice I'm not romantic, never knew exactly what love meant,

So the only love I have is for the Holy Spirit,

Always have been there for me, never allowed me to give in,

Started with the man in the mirror which lead to self renovation,

No I ain't Superman, no ain't Wolverine,

No I ain't Hercules, I'm simply an average human being,

Well eventually the devil will pretty soon have his way with me,

From the second I jump, but need someone to mute my screams,

And my agony and leave me as is,

Maybe now I'll be missed, convinced there won't be a funeral service,

So send me an angel oh heavenly Father,

Consider this farewell, a song for my departure,

God I know I promise that no matter what,

I will always keep you close to my side,

And to, never allow a full moon to take control,

Or to reawaken my tide,

Look, deeply into your eyes beyond these doubts,

Once wide awake they'll realize,

That I was, your radiance but I can be there no longer,

So consider this goodbye,

So this is where we must depart,

Laying down along these avenues and boulevards,

For now all I need is God and for you to pray for me,

Any anguish along the way of this journey, then show no mercy,

Haven't felt like myself lately, darkness is infiltrating,

Sketch a canvas of light no longer illuminating,

Headed for a malfunction, well I wasn't resilient,

Was like vesseling a virus and vaccines into bliss,

Trust me God this isn't their concern,

Not even for a split second expect for me to return,

Please promise me that when I'm gone,

Who I was will be exposed,

Yes maybe these flames are deadly but what I seek is in the smoke,

I'm on a destination, have my suitcase and ticket,

See this as my goodbye, as a matter of fact good riddance,

So send me an angel oh heavenly Father,

Consider this farewell, a song for my departure,

God I know I promise that no matter what,

I will always keep you close to my side,

And to, never allow a full moon to take control,

Or to reawaken my tide,

Look, deeply into your eyes beyond these doubts,

Once wide awake they'll realize,

That I was, your radiance but I can be there no longer,

So consider this goodbye,

Am I your sense of relief or am I more like your burden,

Doesn't matter it won't keep me from this train I'm boarding,

Was like these events weren't given to me in portions,

There I saw distortion, like I was a magnet for misfortune,

While against my demons, there I was skeptical,

But where life is unpredictable, God is incredible,

So send me an angel oh heavenly Father,

Consider this farewell, a song for my departure,

God I know I promise that no matter what,

I will always keep you close to my side,

And to, never allow a full moon to take control,

Or to reawaken my tide,

Look, deeply into your eyes beyond these doubts,

Once wide awake they'll realize,

That I was, your radiance but I can be there no longer,

So consider this goodbye.
