Salvation

With a heart very heavy

I say goodbye

With a soul very dreary

I say goodbye

How do I numb the pain

When there is nothing else to gain

Darkness flows over the head

And there is no light to shed

When the sun has burnt me up

And only bitterness is left to gulp

The decision I take is final

It all ends well with the rifle

A shot echos in the field of carnation

Oh dear! here's my salvation

With a heart very heavy

I say goodbye

With a soul very dreary

I say goodbye
