Wave Goodbye Lyrics

Exatly, I think it's about a girl committing suicide as well.

"A pen ends a note Is this all that I have earned? The words you wrote are from lessons You've unlearned about who you are inside." The pen ending the 'note' is obviously the suicide letter that the girl had written to the guy. He is upset because he thinks he is owed more than just a petty note from the girl, because he probably felt like he meant more to her than that and that he deserved more. The part where he says 'The words that you wrote from lessons you've unlearned' I think that means like, the girl didn't really get to have any real life experiences and without having any life experiences she really doesn't know what she's going to be missing out on and she doesn't realise that she could eventually get over this and learn from it in the future, which will make it a 'lesson learned'

"Now you're standing at the edge of breaking new ground. There's so much in your head before you hit the ground. Just wave goodbye" Obviously about a girl jumping to her death. 'There's so much in her head' that's probably conflicting emotion and her second-guessing the decision.

"Think twice, think twice, think twice Don't say goodbye. Think twice, think twice Just clear your mind Think twice, think twice, Think twice for me this time." And that's the guy pleading with her. Telling her to think again, in the hopes she'll change her mind, and she can start to put things into perspective and to think more clearly about what she's about to do. He's pleading and begging for her to change her mind because she means so much to him and he doesn't want her to end her life.

My interpretation but that's pretty much how I see the song. The meaning is pretty obvious, but I like this song a lot.
