  • All my life I read between the lines
    Held on too tight, you know I tried
    But in the end it left me paralyzed
    It's alright, goodbye, goodbye
    Seems like yesterday, I was a child
    Just a ripple in the folds of time
    I wish you well, I want to see you smile
    It's alright, goodbye
    Goodbye

    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
    I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry
    Lord knows how hard we tried
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

    So many things I want to say to you
    So many sleepless nights I prayed for you
    My heart's an ashtray and I lost my mind
    You bring the smokes, I've got the time
    I want to scream, I want to laugh, I want to close my eyes
    I want to hide somewhere that's hard to find
    Stop wasting time trying to shape your life
    It's alright, goodbye
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
    I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry
    Lord knows how hard we tried
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

    My pretty bird, my favorite lullaby
    How'd I become the thorn in your side?
    All your laughter turned into a cry
    It's alright, goodbye
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
    I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry
    Lord knows how hard we tried
    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Writer/s: Bradley Shultz, Daniel Tichenor, Jared Champion, Matthan Minster, Matthew Shultz, Nicholas Bockrath
