| Burning like an open nerve
|
| I’m running like a dog
|
| On linoleum
|
| I don’t know how come
|
| But the effect of you on me is too much
|
| Bro it’s like you speak in code
|
| I’m only 3 months sober
|
| Swear I’m so close
|
| To buying a bottle of SoCo
|
| A pack of smokes and saying fuck it all
|
| 'Cause I tried to forgive you
|
| For the shit you put me through
|
| But it’s just the hardest thing to do
|
| So I guess it’s goodbye brother
|
| Goodbye rock and roll
|
| Guess it’s goodbye to the only life I know
|
| It’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting
|
| I will see you on the other side of the curtain
|
| Turning like a broken wheel
|
| My own Achilles heel
|
| Tell me how does it feel
|
| To have a normal day
|
| Despite all my rage
|
| I’m just a rat in a cage
|
| Thoughts, they come and crowd my mind
|
| And they’re never kind
|
| It happens all the time, it happens all the time
|
| I’m running out of time, I’m running out of time
|
| 'Cause I tried to forgive you
|
| For the shit you put me through
|
| But it’s just the hardest thing to do
|
| So I guess it’s goodbye brother
|
| Goodbye rock and roll
|
| Guess it’s goodbye to the only life I know
|
| It’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting
|
| I will see you on the other side of the curtain
|
| And now the spotlight shines upon you all alone
|
| Cuts a circle 'round your velvet throne
|
| You take in the applause and give a shallow bow
|
| I’m watching in the rafters now
|
| And you’re striking that pose as they’re throwing the roses
|
| Lifting up your arms like the statue of Moses
|
| One door opens another one closes
|
| I’m watching in the rafters now
|
| So I guess it’s goodbye brother
|
| Goodbye rock and roll
|
| Guess it’s goodbye to the only life I know
|
| Yeah, it’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting
|
| I will see you on the other side of the curtain
|
| Goodbye brother
|
| Goodbye rock and roll
|
| Goodbye to the only life I know
|
| Yeah, it’s a shame you couldn’t just say you were hurting
|
| Guess I’ll see you on the other side of the curtain |
