Goodbye Quote by Bring Me The Horizon
“Can you tell from the look in our eyes? (we're going nowhere) We live our lives like we're ready to die (we're going nowhere) I thought I buried you and covered the tracks You'll have to take this with your cold dead hands I thought I buried you What's dead can never die I thought I'd cut you loose, severed the feeling I slipped through the cracks and you caved in my ceiling I thought I buried you What's dead can never die”
