Now the ghost has left the room And the music’s gotten bad The party’s feeling rotten Was that the best we’ve ever had? Sometimes the thoughts in my head Yeah they terrify me When you understand the radical And the pure simplicity Singin’ Goodbye to patience Farewell to dreams So long to sacred Well it’s as painful as it seems Still I won’t write off No I won’t write off No I won’t write off Mankind Well I don’t believe you’d go to hell But I like the sound of heaven I took a pill and went there in my mind In spring 2007 Well the message came through loud and clear So I hung up the phone It didn’t bring me any peace my love But I did not feel alone Singin’ Goodbye to patience Farewell to dreams So long to sacred Well it’s as painful as it seems Still I won’t write off No I won’t write off No I won’t write off Mankind No I won’t write off No I won’t write off No I won’t write off Mankind God knows I could use a lover lately God knows I could use a lover lately Still I won’t write off No I won’t write off No I won’t write off Mankind Oh I won’t write off No I won’t write off No I won’t write off Mankind No I won’t write off No I won’t write off No I won’t write off Mankind
