Final Salute
Twenty-one years old
Never doing what he's told
Just a small will to survive
Opened up his life
Found new things that night
Didn't realize
It was the end
The end of all he ever dreamed of
And the goals that he had set
But it was just enough
To fool his ambition
I always figured it'd fix itself
And I was too careless to help
I said, "Forget it, let it be"
[Chorus]
I know it will catch up to you
I know you don't have a fucking clue
You know it will die
But you can't admit it
Just dumb enough to believe
He was bright enough to see
All the deep voids in his soul
It was worth one last try
It'll happen or she'll die
As I gave it my final salute
Happy forever
Always together
Just keep on breathing
The End
Will you ever see the people that you let down?
You're the only one
That ever refused my help
What you could have done
If I could only ask one last thing:
Please help yourself
(chorus)
