The Logical End

Don't fade away

A listless gaze
Through tear stained eyes
A father shares his warm goodbye
Live for the truth
Don't suffer lies
Keep your head up
Now don't you cry
I watch my hero fade away
Stay logical
I struggle for the words to say
Can't lose control
Can't reach the bottom now and lose my soul
Won't pretend that this
This is anything
Anything more than the logical end
My friend
Thanks for the memories
You've been a godsend

Keep your head up
Back straight
Don't linger on the words to say
Be strong
Take the pain
And save it for another day

The truth may hurt
The lies will last
The truth (the truth)
May hurt (may hurt)
But the lies last forever

When I fade away
When I fade away
Will all my memories dissolve?
And leave a shadow of dismay?
Or will I be a light?
Will I be a light?
That brings you a warm smile?
A gentle hand that guides the way

More stone for the castles of man
We'll build another empire here
Where we stand
We never have to see
A logical end
As long as we live

Keep your head up
Back straight
Don't linger on the words to say
Be strong
Take the pain
And save it for another day
Don't fade away
Save it for another day
Don't fade away
Save it for another day
Don't fade away
Don't fade away
Don't fade away
