Final Letter Home

lyrics

If truth be told
There is really nothing more for me to say
The page is turned, the chapter's closed
Up to the line
Now I'm standing waiting for the words
I've feared so long, I'll hear them just one time

I don't feel sad, don't feel anything at all
But I know this is my final letter home
I want you to know

I won't look back
There is really nothing to go back to
Once it's done, it's done for sure, I'm sure
So just look forward
To daylight, now the end can't be so far
And I have waited long enough

I don't feel sad, don't feel anything at all
That's for you to feel, when this arrives back home
Will you feel angry, or feel a sense of loss
And will you forgive my final letter home
I just don't know

I don't feel sad, don't feel anything at all
But I know this is my final letter home
And now I must go
