Say Goodbye
Navigating Life's Crossroads: Preston Langston's 'Say Goodbye' Meaning
Lyrics
Close to the edge, I'm hanging on
Feeling close to a breaking point, holding on desperately.
On for dear life, I see that it's gone
Clutching onto something valuable that is now lost.
An open mind, my head's overflowed
Having an open mind, but overwhelmed with thoughts.
With the thoughts, I should've known
Regretting not recognizing certain thoughts earlier.
I caught it twice and I knew from that night
Experiencing a realization or warning for the second time.
That I gave advice that I knew it would calm my mind
Offering advice to calm one's mind, but unsure of its impact.
I could hold it against you but decided not too
Choosing not to hold something against someone.
'Cause it was just not the truth
Recognizing that a previous statement was not truthful.
Can I
Pondering the ability to...
Say Goodbye
...say goodbye.
To the night
Expressing a desire to move away from a challenging time.
And look for the light
Seeking positivity and enlightenment.
I'm about to lose my mind
Feeling on the verge of losing control of one's mind.
Control my life
Attempting to regain control of life.
Then we'll do it right
Planning to handle things in the right way.
Can I say goodbye
Reiterating the question about the ability to...
Running out of precious time
...acknowledge the running out of time.
Will I have enough, I'm questioning why
Questioning if there will be enough time.
I started to get lost but now I'm found
Having been lost but now finding oneself.
Exposed to the world, going up instead of down
Facing the world and moving upward.
I caught it twice and I knew from that night
Repeating a realization from a previous night.
That I gave advice that I knew it would calm my mind
Offering advice again for calming the mind.
I could hold it against you but decided not too
Choosing not to hold something against someone again.
'Cause it was just not the truth
Acknowledging that a previous statement was not the truth.
Can I
Pondering the ability to...
Say Goodbye
...say goodbye.
To the night
Expressing a desire to move away from a challenging time again.
And look for the light
Seeking positivity and enlightenment again.
I'm about to lose my mind
Feeling on the verge of losing control of one's mind again.
Control my life
Attempting to regain control of life again.
Then we'll do it right
Planning to handle things in the right way again.
Can I say goodbye
Reiterating the question about the ability to...
