Sometimes, sometimes you don't say goodbye once
You say goodbye over and over and over again
Over and over and over again
Sometimes, sometimes you don't say goodbye once
You say goodbye over and over and over again
Over and over and over again

It was a month since he passed, maybe less
And no one knew what to do
We were such a mess
We were texting
We were calling, we were checking in
We said we ought to play a show
In honor of our friend
Well now that show's finally here, it's tonight
Supposed to go, to the bowl
Get on stage, dim the lights
With my friends, and our family
In his name, celebrate

There's no way that I'll be ready
To get back up on that stage
Can't remember if I've cancelled any show
But I think about what I'm supposed to do
And I don't know
Cause I think about not doing it
The same way as before
And it makes me wanna puke
My fucking guts out on the floor
We rehearsed it for a month
I'm not worried about the set
I get tackled by the grief at times
That I would least expect
I know what I should doing
When I'm singing but instead
We'll be playing through a song
And I'd remember in my head

Sometimes, sometimes you don't say goodbye once
You say goodbye over and over and over again
Over and over and over again
Sometimes, sometimes you don't say goodbye once
You say goodbye over and over and over again
Over and over and over again

What (are) they saying, I'm not raw?
What the fuck you take me for?
All the sudden you hear
What I've said a hundred ways before?
I been pushed, I been trapped
Drug myself through hell and back and
Fallen flat and had the balls
To start it all again from scratch
How do you feel, how you doing
How'd the show go?
Am I insane to say the truth
Is that I don't know
My body aches heads spinning
This is all wrong
I almost lost it in middle of a couple songs
And everybody that I talk to is like: wow
Must be hard to figure out what to do now
Well thank you genius
You think it'll be a challenge
Only my life's work
Hanging in the fucking balance
And all I wanted was to get
A little bit of closure
And every step I took I looked
And wasn't any closer
Cause sometimes when you say goodbye
Yeah you say it
Over and over and over and over

Sometimes, sometimes you don't say goodbye once
You say goodbye over and over and over again
Over and over and over again
Sometimes, sometimes you don't say goodbye once
You say goodbye over and over and over again
Over and over and over again

Over and over and over again
