lyrics

May will come and everything will change and grow. But I'll still be late to bloom
Everyone leaves me behind
It's an all too familiar story

Two more dabs till sleepless nights will end
But when the lights went out, I let some demons in

Funny thing is, after all this, I still think that I'm a good person

This drive hasn't gotten better,
and neither has the letter

It used to be where we made sense of things
You worked your whole life on this one way street
I still don't understand how you picked up your feet

Then weakness in me shows
Slowly unfolding who I really am

Because I only ever think of myself
Shut out every one else
And never offer them my help

So goodnight and goodbye
And when you go, turn out my light

I guess I'll just wait outside.
You know it's cold out here,
but you never seem to mind

I used to be strong like a house with four walls and a roof
I used to be able to keep all my demons at bay

And when I watched it
burn down, I could see
you smiling at me

This must be goodnight and goodbye
