Analysis of Goodbye
When the daylight breaks
I throw the window wide open
And call your name across the sky
The echo which I hear
Tells me you are not there
like a child who has lost the moon
I cry
I hope you know how it feels to be alone
You keep on falling in the well of thoughts
Which seems to have no end
Struggling to find something to hold on to
I scream for you
Till my blood is dry
I fear being left alone in the night
treachers of the darkness
are on the prowl
I run and run and run
When I realize you won’t come
I give up and close my eyes
I am not afraid of dying
But one thought frightens me the most
That you will never know
How much I had cherished you
And I will be the loser
When I say the world goodbye
