50 Ways to Say Goodbye (Help Me Help Me) - Alex Cornell

My heart is paralyzed

My head was oversized

I’ll take the high road like I should

You said it’s meant to be

That it’s not you, it’s me

You’re leaving now for my own good

That’s cool, but if my friends ask where you are I’m gonna say

She went down in an airplane

Fried getting suntan

Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand

Help me, help me, I’m no good at goodbyes!

She met a shark under water

Fell and no one caught her

I returned everything I ever bought her

Help me, help me, I’m all out of lies

And ways to say you died

My pride still feels the sting

You were my everything

Some day I’ll find a love like yours (a love like yours)

She’ll think I’m Superman

Not super minivan

How could you leave on Yom Kippur?

That’s cool, but if my friends ask where you are I’m gonna say

She was caught in a mudslide

Eaten by a lion

Got run over by a crappy purple Scion

Help me, help me, I’m no good at goodbyes!

She dried up in the desert

Drown in a hot tub

Danced to death at an east side night club

Help me, help me, I’m all out of lies

And ways to say you died

I wanna live a thousand lives with you

I wanna be the one you’re dying to

Love… but you don’t want to

That’s cool, but if my friends ask where you are I’m gonna say

That’s cool, but if my friends ask where you are I’m gonna say

She went down in an airplane

Fried getting suntan

Fell in a cement mixer full of quicksand

Help me, help me, I’m no good at goodbyes!

She met a shark under water

Fell and no one caught her

I returned everything I ever bought her

Help me, help me, I’m all out of lies

She was caught in a mudslide

Eaten by a lion

Got run over by a crappy purple Scion

Help me, help me, I’m no good at goodbyes!

She dried up in the desert

Drown in a hot tub

Danced to death at an east side side night club

Help me, help me, I’m all out of lies

And ways to say goodbye
