When the end comes Well, you have to say goodbye So long, see you later Wish I didn’t have to go Here I am checking out I bought the farm Well, I wish I didn’t have to go That which makes all men terrified In which we are all glorified That which makes the bravest man cry An atheist will give a priest a chance One day the old reaper will find you There is no earthly way to hide It’s inevitable you’ll die here It’s just a waiting game With his wicked scythe, he’ll cut you down They’ll raise up that old burial mound Poisoned, stabbed, old age, or drowned He’ll find a way to claim you When the end comes Well, you have to say goodbye So long, see you later Wish I didn’t have to go Here I am checking out I bought the farm Well, I wish I didn’t have to go Black man, white man, and a patriot Anarchist, trans, and a terrorist People you know and all the people you hate It’s a great equalizer Car accident or a suicide Medical complications, a genocide Natural causes or a homicide So many different ways to go here Heaven, hell, reincarnation Purgatory, moral motivation Darkness or a sunny vacation Either way its the end, now When the end comes Well, you have to say goodbye So long, see you later Wish I didn’t have to go Here I am checking out I bought the farm Well, I wish I didn’t have to go For which all the songs have been song That which makes scary movies fun Makes a painter paint the setting sun It’s artistic inspiration It destroys life for a mother Carves a great divide for two lovers Please, don’t let my dog suffer Here, we’ve all known some loss It leaves us crying in it’s wake Inflicting pain we just can’t take Despite empty promises we make It’s so hard to put them to rest When the end comes Well, you have to say goodbye So long, see you later Wish I didn’t have to go Here I am checking out I bought the farm Well, I wish I didn’t have to go I got questions I want answers to Don’t think I can let go of you Guess letting go is what you’d want me to do So here I am moving on
