lyrics

Watching the hours, the minutes, the seconds go by as I
Fueled by desire
I buried myself so deep I left the bottom behind
How many times did I promise myself this is how it would end?
And now I surrender
Gift-wrapped and willing, with a smile on my face

I tried to be myself
I tried to be who i thought you wanted
I tried to beat success
By taking pride in just trying
And now it’s time to say goodbye

It’s time to say goodbye
As I leave the dream

Carrying the burden
To fill up the void left by all my attempts
Discarded and naked
Curled up in the corner of who I might have been
Hanging by a thread
And each of your words is sharp as a knife
I’m at peace with my fears
And now it’s time to say goodbye

And if all of my fantasies and all my desires make you sick
I will understand
If all the things i keep to myself just to fit in were to blow up
Would you understand?

I’m gonna sell each and every one of my illusions
So i can set up my soul’s retirement fund
