Goodbye

This is the saddest love song ever written. When I first came to this site, I read over it and it truely struck home. I may be leaving for the air force soon and my girlfriend will be here, so this song hit pretty hard. He keeps talking about finding something so magical, and I believe that at the beginning of the song that something is why he is leaving her. He has to go to it. But at the end of the song, when he says that he has lost something so magical, he is talking about her. He finnaly realizes that what he wants is her and that he loves her more that what he left for.

I have something else to add. This song is from beyond the grave. The person saying goodbye is dead and leaving his loved one behind. "Peeling killers rise, precious circle is mended sense vertigo in you." He is talking about being dead. Finally, he says "when everything is gone away, I'll see you again."

I think this song is about a dying person, telling thier loved one (friend, wife/husband, sister/brother, daughter/son...etc.that it's ok and that they will be together agian. So I'd say it is from a spirit's point of view. How upon death "spirit" has found something so magical, but also by death has lost (temperarly) the people "spirit" loves, and "spirits" life on earth and everthing it held" which is also something so magickal.

i have to agree that this is from the perspective of some one who was taken away from life maybe prematurly and no matter how great the place there are after life they would give anything to go back and be with the people they love but they can't so they say i will be watching over you and waiting for you when they other person dies and they will see them again

i have to say this is an absolutly incredible song very emotionally driven one of my favorites from mudvayne

I also agree that is about death or spoken from a spirits perspective, since death blooms was about Chads grandmother..This song maybe too.

Death, Fear, Protection from beyond the grave, Unconditional love, Talking to loved ones who have died (and vice versa) Although this is just my opinion

Sounds to me like it's from the view of someone committing suicide. These are his thoughts and feelings about the only person he loved. With the line "I've lost something so magical" he means the power to live on (whatever it was. Positive feelings...) I guess, not the person. In the first verses he tries to comfort her, but at the middle part ("Someone, Help Me...") there is a dropout in which he describes his helplessness.

I am not a fan of Mudvayne but this song is fucking awesome. and mykebyney I completely agree with what this song is about haha.

I just heard this song recently...didn\'t even know about until I got the download option in the mudvayne newsletter. I really like it but some parts of the lyrics posted here are way off

You're way off!
