Emilie Autumn - Goodbye lyrics
And so I've said too much and not enough 
And so the play is finally at an end 
You never had the care to call my bluff 
And so I must be pleased to be your friend 
But what, then, was the purpose of this game? 
I never really had a chance to win 
It's true, I rather like who I became 
But what am I to do with who I've been? 
For I may wish to meet myself someday 
Among the ashes of a fire long dead 
To see my shadow there and hear it say 
That it was happy with the life it led 
What emptiness awaits me? This I fear 
Far more than any peril I might face 
My purpose in this world became less clear 
When you were taken from your cherished place Emilie Autumn - Goodbye - http://motolyrics.com/emilie-autumn/goodbye-lyrics.html
Within my wishing heart and went your way 
So willingly it almost makes me ill 
To think it never crossed your mind to stay 
Pushes the dagger deep, completes the kill 
And yet how much of this was done by me? 
Had I the courage, would you still have flown? 
How sad to think this was not destiny 
But my mistake, yet how could I have known? 
Now here is my dilemma, as it seems: 
Do I accept the score that fate has set 
And calmly watch the passing of my dreams, 
Or do I dare to place another bet: 
That where the curtain falls another rises? 
If I am wrong, then strike me for my sins 
But I believe our acts and thin disguises 
Were but a prologue to what now begins
