At the end of a long goodbye
Is an unmarked spot where illusions die
Last rites for this pack of lies that I relied on
Here I am at a turn in the road
Walking away from the things I know
With a piece of a map in a secret code
Half believing
Half believing

Chorus:
This is where my future lies
At the end of a long goodbye
Shadowed by my questions why
At the end of a long goodbye
Hope remains a sweet surprise
At the end of a long goodbye

This might be the start of something real
Survives on the truth, not the way I feel
Leaving the crumbs I mistook for a meal
To feed the birds
Feed the birds

Chorus
