Head down and daylight fades to black
Moving forward but can't help looking back
And we were certain that nothing would ever change
Behind the curtain, we fell behind, to never be the same.

Salvation, this is goodbye my darling.
The memory that will not leave
Has stayed past its welcome
I will remember you, but you say I'm lost, it's true
And surrender me and take this crown of thorns that I've become.

A new year, we better make this last
A sympathetic ear, is all that I will ask
It's all a new game that no one seems to win
And with a new name, to break these chains
Free me from my sins.

Salvation, this is goodbye my darling.
The memory that will not leave
Has stayed past its welcome
I will remember you, but you say I'm lost, it's true
And surrender me and take this crown of thorns that I've become.

Salvation, this is goodbye my darling.
The memory that will not leave
Has stayed past its welcome
I will remember you, but you say I'm lost, it's true
And surrender me and take this crown of thorns that I've become.
