Upon My Departure Lyrics
When the final bell is rung
And the game's declared over
We speak the words goodbye
And I know it's forever
An empty pit inside my chest
Was more than a small clue
No you'll never see me again
Something I gotta get used to
But you left much behind
Some peace and vital signs
Food for a busy mind
And souvenirs to hold tight
Just a passenger on your jetliner
Crashing to the ground
But the impact doesn't make a sound
Well a lesson to be learned
From your departure
Funny thing but when you went away
I lost part of my cure
And now I'm searching hard
Underneath every card
Hoping with best regards
You'll bail me out of this dream state
Oh but what I feel
Unfortunately is real
Feeling the sting of pain
Not a damn thing can erase the stain
I'm leaving here
And you’ll know why when I'm gone
I'm leaving here
Translate your knowledge through this song
I wont forget
Why our words were meant to mesh
Why I’m glad we shared a glass
I gave something to your soul
And you gave me more than you’ll ever know
Are my senses clear?
Do I feel it here?
Sometimes the past is insincere
And the game's declared over
We speak the words goodbye
And I know it's forever
An empty pit inside my chest
Was more than a small clue
No you'll never see me again
Something I gotta get used to
But you left much behind
Some peace and vital signs
Food for a busy mind
And souvenirs to hold tight
Crashing to the ground
But the impact doesn't make a sound
From your departure
Funny thing but when you went away
I lost part of my cure
And now I'm searching hard
Underneath every card
Hoping with best regards
You'll bail me out of this dream state
Unfortunately is real
Feeling the sting of pain
Not a damn thing can erase the stain
And you’ll know why when I'm gone
I'm leaving here
Translate your knowledge through this song
I wont forget
Why our words were meant to mesh
Why I’m glad we shared a glass
I gave something to your soul
And you gave me more than you’ll ever know
Do I feel it here?
Sometimes the past is insincere

One of the most beautiful metal songs ever written. Bush's voice is so amazing. I think it's about someone saying their last goodbye to someone they'll never see again.
