So Long and Goodnight


First of all, "So long and goodnight" are the lyrics to the chorus of the song Helena by My Chemical Romance. The lead singer (Gerard Way) Wrote it for his grandmaw, who had passed before the song was written. His grandmaw meant the world to him, she taught him everything. How to sing, dance, draw, and perform. My grandmaw was the same way, she meant the world to me, and that's why I am dedicating that song to her. Everytime I listen to it, I will remember her. I have to watch her everyday, dieing before my very eyes. At least she does'nt have to suffer anymore, her suffering is almost over.


Long ago

Just like the hearse you die to get in again

We are so far from you


Burning on just like a match you strike to incinerate

The lives of everyone you know

And what's the worst you take (worst you take)

From every heart you break (heart you break)

From every heart you break (heart you break)

Well I've been holding on tonight


(Chorus)

What's the worst thing I could say?

Things are better if I stay

So long and goodnight

So long and goodnight


Came a time

When every star fall brought you to tears again

We are the very hurt you sold

And what's the worst you take (worst you take)

From every heart you break (heart you break)

And like the blade you stain (blade you stain)

Well I've been holding on tonight


(Chorus)

What's the worst thing I could say?

Things are better if I stay

So long and goodnight

So long and goodnight

Well if you carry on this way

Things are better if I stay

So long and goodnight

So long and goodnight


Can you hear me?

Are you near me?

Can we pretend to leave and then

We'll meet again

When both our cars collide?


(Chorus)

What's the worst thing I could say?

Things are better if I stay

So long and goodnight

So long and goodnight

Well if you carry on this way

Things are better if I stay

So long and goodnight

So long and goodnight
