lyrics

Keep it together, I'm choking down words like I'm out of time
This life that they gave me, it's broken, you're gone
In your eyes I've failed, but this is my life
I can't live your lifestyle, I try so hard but
I'm not who you are, I don't want to be
You told me to get out unless I quit this
It's not a vacation, this is my life

So I guess that this is goodbye
So I guess that this is goodbye

So I guess that this is goodbye
So long and fucking goodnight
If you're so well intentioned
Why can't I make this right?

Keep it together, I'm choking down words like I'm out of time
This life that they gave me, it's broken, you're gone
In your eyes I've failed, but this is my life
Why can't I make this right?
