Upon my departure

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
