Don't Say Goodbye

What is the truth?, words of the sky
I think it's the thing that makes me try 
It's what I forget that makes me cry
Oh, my parents, don't say goodbye

Here's to the other, he has the key
Took it away, return it to me
One foot extended, one foot is down
I'm not my brother, who's not around

Fleece off your earth, jump off your swing
Remember your worth, to laugh and to sing
You know the truth, only your soul
Is the test of your words, the test of your goals

So, come on parents, let's find the ghost
Put it away, learn to be close
Give me your tears, give me your eyes 
Oh, my parents, don't say goodbye
