Goodbye World Lyrics by Sandpeople

Long Story Short

2009

[Verse 1: OnlyOne]
I'm giving up...
Even though I'll know they'll be here when the chips are up
If we die the world doesn't give a fuck
Cause killing a world never meant shit to us
If beings from other planets learn to live with us
If they can't: is it them, or is it us?
Sharks in bloody water, I jump in it
I'm grateful for every day the sun's risen
My only fear is my work going unfinished
Somebody witness, someone get killed for bus tickets
Your life could be taken in one instant...
But this is just one instance
We worship things we imagine like tall tales
We pledge allegiance to a banner that's star spangled
Beneath the magma of a volcano
I await famine and the Archangel
And all I can say is...

[Chorus: Illmaculate]
Goodbye world, I'ma miss you
But not as much as you'll miss me
When it's all said and done
The question becomes: are you afraid to be free?
They saying goodbye hearse
If I miss you, more than you miss me
I just find inner peace within a dream
And let go, I ain't afraid to be free
Say goodbye world...

[Verse 2: Ethic]
And we aim for the summit
Been a long time coming, there's an ache in my stomach
We spend 'em all, but these days ain't abundant
A wrecking ball, that I take and I run with
When I'm done with it all, and this curtain falls for me
No comfort's taking if my work is not coursing
Through the blood it is pouring
The bloodletting's upsetting when we see those with no puddles forming
So we trudge on forging
A new path to do math and use that morphine
Like it subdues that scorching effect
When there's nobody left to set our corpse free

[Verse 3: Mo-B]
They say the good die young
Well I got a long time 'fore my time comes
Will I rise with the sun if I rest in the sunset?
I must admit I'm preoccupied by all these notions of judgment
Comparin 'em to Judas Iscariot
Sometimes the stick's more motivating than the carrot is
I'm judging arrogance, once that dirt covers
Before too long I'll be sporting them earth colors

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: Goldini Bagwell]
Off the wall, and I'm smiling for all the wrong reasons
I'm but an odd ball tipping the scales just to get even
All in all, I'll take the chances and take your hand this evening
So you'll feel no withdrawal the moment you realize I'm leaving
Hah... and I won't be back
Don't get attached, my last one-night-stand told me that
So I show love, with a grain of salt
But when karma struck I was like, "Hold up, it ain't my fault!"
I was conditioned to put up these fences
So on the day of my conviction we'll have to breakthrough
Before they take you
Besides, the look in their eyes is less convincing
When you can see 'em flinching from a bird's-eye view
Almost through with my last will and testament
It's a Russian roulette, and guess who the next contestant is
Let me tip my glass and ash my herb
Before I pass I leave you with these last words

[Chorus]
