to mourn the end is to say goodbye
not to yearn for that which we will never have again

we cry for our life together, because we know it will end
and we try to understand, how we could ever love again

save your tears at the end of our time
we've cried enough in our lives
at the end of our time just kiss my ashes goodbye

we miss them so much now that they are gone
took them for granted for living so long

we read their words again and we listen to them again 
as we start to understand what they were trying to say, all along

save your tears at the end of our time
kiss my ashes goodbye

kiss my ashes goodbye

curse all those who were so vain 
who felt entitled to hold a place on the earth as a grave for their remains
but no monument for me, please, I am not one of them
I didn't need it in life, I won't need it in death

just kiss my ashes goodbye
when I die, kiss my ashes goodbye

when words [bad word] irrelevant
and you start to feel as though you've been misled
keep me out of sight, leave me out of mind
when the thought no longer serves you 
when I no longer serve you
just let the memories die
and move on

kiss my ashes goodbye
when I die, kiss my ashes goodbye
