Northbound - I Can't Say Goodbye

To Rate
Hold me close and by the throat
Then spit me out to sea
Bold and black the shadows cast
I'm everything but what you need
I speak in tongues about my old friends
And figures from the past
You used to smile at my laugh
And now it just makes you mad

I'm not saying what you're thinking
But the future's looking bleak
To everyone I've ever loved
Your essence stays with me
I can't say goodbye, so I'll just leave

Hold me down and make me frown
Then leave me with thе breeze
Bold and brash, the first attack
You're еverything but what you seem
I used to stare and see you there
A voice among the trees
We sang in silent acquiescence
But now I just wanna scream

I'm not saying what you're thinking
But the future's looking bleak
For what it was, it's mostly love
The struggle makes it sweet
To everyone I've loved and lost
Your essence stays with me
I can't say goodbye
So I'll just leave
I can't say goodbye
So I'll just leave
