Text Challenge: Shinedown - Second Chance   suggested by hitz_girl

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

I just saw Hayley's comet, she waved
Said why you always running in place?
Even the man in the Moon disappeared
Somewhere in the Stratosphere

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 Hayley's comet, she waved
Said why you always running in place?
Even the man in the Moon disappeared
Somewhere in the Stratosphere

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's 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
