lyrics

Dead Man’s Diary

to those who love me
I wish you well
I’ll miss you more than I can tell

goodbye friends and family
sorry that I have to leave
keep me in your memories
as the man I tried to be

(dead dead dead and gone)
(dead dead dead and gone)

to those who talked behind my back
your lives will always be a mess

goodbye to my enemies
this is not your victory
I may pass and fade away
but all my thoughts they will remain

there is no exit on the road to hell
there is no happy ending in a dead man’s diary
there is no way to escape from fate
there is no shelter from the power of disbelief

there will be no legacy
but a list of things I never did
I’m the part of history
no one will ever tell

goodbye friends and family
sorry that I have to leave
keep me in your memories
as the man I tried to be

everything I dreamed of simply falls apart
where did I go wrong
how do I deserve to leave before I’m done

there is no exit on the road to hell
there is no happy ending in a dead man’s diary
there is no way to escape from fate
there is no shelter from the power of disbelief

there will be no legacy
but a list of things I never did
I’m the part of history
no one will ever tell

goodbye friends and family
sorry that I have to leave
keep me in your memories
as the man I tried to be
goodbye to my enemies
this is not your victory
I may pass and fade away
but all my thoughts they will remain

all that I leave behind is people
I once used to know
and all their unfulfilled expectations

I shiver as I think of all the things
I never said
and those I missed due to my hesitation

there is no exit on the road to hell
there is no happy ending in a dead man’s diary
there is no way to escape from fate
there is no shelter from the power of disbelief

there will be no legacy
but a list of things I never did
I’m the part of history
no one will ever tell

goodbye friends and family
sorry that I have to leave
keep me in your memories
as the man I tried to be
goodbye to my enemies
this is not your victory
I may pass and fade away
but all my thoughts they will remain
