Lyrics

Goodbye Cruel World
© 2004 Lee Brovitz
1)
Time frozen - Tomb silence
Black rain is falling from the sky
Ground zero - Mama's hero
Cross my heart and hope to die
For the land of the free and the home of the brave
and their less fortunate sons
Our two-faced uncle send his deep regrets,
the letter postmarked ?Kingdom Come?

Falling silent in the dead of the night
My heart is heavy - my head feeling light
Take me to heaven - the all-time high
Goodbye cruel world - cruel world, goodbye
2)
Orange glaze - White hot blaze
Septic stench of flesh and blood
The first casualties the truth, but the point remains mute
Rip the wings from the innocent dove
Deface the music - Hero?s unsung
Trapped in my wildest dream
Mr Tambourine Man still plays his song for me
to the silence of deafening screams

Falling silent in the dead of the night
My heart is heavy - my head feeling light
Take me to heaven - the all-time high
Goodbye cruel world - cruel world, goodbye
3)
My head?s gone swimming -My heart sinking like a stone
It?s my third time going down
My eyes fill with tears as i sense the end is near
They?ve come to take this soldier home
... chorus out ...
