My eyes are open wide
By the way I made it through the day
I watch the world outside
By the way I'm leaving out today

I just saw Halley's Comet she waved
Said "why you always running in place?"
Even the man in the moon disappeared
Somewhere in the stratosphere

[Chorus]
Tell my mother, tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry, I'm just saying
Sometimes goodbye is a second chance

Please don't cry one tear for me
I'm not afraid of what I have to say
This is my one and only voice
So listen close, it's only for today

I just saw Halley's Comet she waved
Said "why you always running in place?"
Even the man in the moon disappeared
Somewhere in the stratosphere

[Chorus]
Tell my mother, tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry, I'm just saying
Sometimes goodbye is a second chance

Here is my chance
This is my chance

Tell my mother, tell my father
I've done the best I can
To make them realize
This is my life
I hope they understand
I'm not angry, I'm just saying
Sometimes goodbye is a second chance

Sometimes goodbye
Is a second chance [x3]

*These are the lyrics of one of many songs that I like. The lead singer Brent Smith told the audience. It is not about suicide. This is what Brent Smith said :"This song was difficult for me to write the lyrics to because it's about my mother and my father, and about the day I said goodbye to them, because I had to go try, and I'm still trying, every day, to become a man. So, this song is about that. It's about the moment that you wake up and you decide you want to go for every single dream you ever want".I do understand what he is saying because there is going to be a day where you will have to get up and follow your dream with all of yours strength.This song it has so much meaning and that's what makes it a good song. See, my dream is to become a surgeon. I want to work in a great hospital saving lives.I am still not sure what kind of surgeon I want to be but I do know that I will try my best to become one.I know it takes a lot of years to become a doctor but I am willing to go to school for how it takes because I know it will be worth it.So wish me luck !
