sayonara is just a word and with love a sad word
with out love its an empty word
but with you its even more
sayonara means memories of what has been before
it comes with grief, regret, not hope
and yet with you its more
sayonara is a future frightened, empty, and unknown
and a question, can one love ever come again?
and with you its more again
sayonara means forever, a funeral, a grave
its colder now and dark
but with you its even more
sayonara is like life itself
drained of fluids, nutrients and love
still with you its more
sayonara leaves a place of comfort soft and warm
a wind blows erie in the loneness
and with you it more again
sayonara is a beating drum
in silent forrest never heard
and its still more with you
sayonara is the truth
about all there is or was
and thank you for the life you gave
it screams nothing more to come
sayonara is a lie, a futureless farewell
its blind and deaf not hinting at what there's left to live
and its more and more for all of us until the very end
which is not imminent or now, my dear and lovely friend
