Lyrics for Goodbye Evergreen

Goodbye, Evergreen You know I love you But everything heaven-sent Must burn out in the end I promised you Just as you were in my dream Now, let me off easy And I'll slip down through the drain To release my scattered brain My enemy Something just isn't right I cut from the inside I'm frightened of the end I'm drowning in my self-defense Now punish me Think of me as what you will I grow like a cancer I'm pressed out in the rain Deliver me from the poisoned pain (Goodbye Evergreen, goodbye Evergreen) (Goodbye, you know I love you) (Goodbye Evergreen, goodbye Evergreen) (Goodbye Evergreen, you know I love you) (Goodbye Evergreen, goodbye Evergreen) (Goodbye, you know I love you) (Goodbye Evergreen, goodbye Evergreen) (Goodbye, you know I love you) (Goodbye Evergreen, goodbye Evergreen) You know I love you You know I, I-I love you You know I love
