Say Goodbye
Verse1
Welcome to the darkness
where I used to be
where I used to live
thought it was harmony
where I believed all the lies
I was told
where I believed all the things
that destroyed my soul
Verse2
Welcome to the gray area
in my life
it haunts me everyday
it's where I used to hide
thought no one loved me
and I believed I was dead inside
it made me deaf and blind
to everything around me
I was goin' no where fast
had destruction on my mind
Bridge1
I wanted to rule the world
or walk away
build my own empire
hadn't a care for anyone
hadn't a care for myself
I was goin' the other way
never thought I'd walk into the light
'til God grabbed a hold of me
and lined me out right
He made me see what's right
He made me see the light
Chorus
Wicked one
oh wicked one
keep away from me
I don't need your lies
I don't need no sin
to keep hauntin' me
wicked one
oh wicked one
you can't control me
God is here to protect me
He's right here by my side
it's time to close the door on you
it's time to Say Goodbye
Say Goodbye
Verse3
My soul was numb
my heart was gone
I could not feel a thing
it didn't matter anyway
I didn't care
I'd lost my way
I was walkin' in the rain
the tears would not go away
'til the night I hit my knees and prayed
God please save me
Bridge2
I don't wanna rule the world
don't let me walk away
I don't wanna build my own empire
I wanna be in your grace
never thought I'd walk in the light
'til you showed me the way
you lined me out right
you made me see what's right
you made me see the light
Repeat Chorus
Verse4
You told me
walk into the light with me
I will set you free
I will show you the way
(solo)
Verse5
Welcome to the light
where I am
doesn't mean I'm a perfect man
love the sinner
not the sin
open your heart
let God in
He's who I believe
it's who I am
God made me a better man
He didn't give up on me
you better believe
I won't give up on Him
Repeat Bridge2 and Chorus
