I don't know how to say goodbye....
Torn between the truth and a dream
Nothing is ever what it may seem
How can a lie be confused with truth
Stepping back into time, back to my youth
Feelings I can't seem to keep locked inside
Emotional rollercoaster taking me for a ride
Build me up then break me
If this is how my life is meant to be
I run, but I can't find my secret hiding place
I can't seem to win this race
The closer I get, the more I get left behind
I must see to survive but this love has made me blind
Your true colors have made it's way through
What has become of you?
With them I must paint a work of art
For you have already captured my heart
My life is no longer what I knew
You do not hide what I am to you
To the night I must surrender
Prisoner to the pain when I remember
In with the new, out with the old
What's harder to grasp is stronger to hold
What wasn't meant to last
Is now a thing of the past
The faster I run
The less it will become
Forget what I said
Please let go of what I did
Why am I forced to walk away
The emptiness subsides with each passing day
I can fake this smile and give you a lie
But I just don't know how to say goodbye...
Nothing is ever what it may seem
How can a lie be confused with truth
Stepping back into time, back to my youth
Feelings I can't seem to keep locked inside
Emotional rollercoaster taking me for a ride
Build me up then break me
If this is how my life is meant to be
I run, but I can't find my secret hiding place
I can't seem to win this race
The closer I get, the more I get left behind
I must see to survive but this love has made me blind
Your true colors have made it's way through
What has become of you?
With them I must paint a work of art
For you have already captured my heart
My life is no longer what I knew
You do not hide what I am to you
To the night I must surrender
Prisoner to the pain when I remember
In with the new, out with the old
What's harder to grasp is stronger to hold
What wasn't meant to last
Is now a thing of the past
The faster I run
The less it will become
Forget what I said
Please let go of what I did
Why am I forced to walk away
The emptiness subsides with each passing day
I can fake this smile and give you a lie
But I just don't know how to say goodbye...
