Alright, now take one look at me,
|
Cause it's the last you'll ever see because I'm leaving tonight.
|
And just think about it, you'll never have to be embarrassed,
|
In front of your friends and family again, so enjoy it.
|
And the air will be better,
|
It will feel much thinner.
|
There will be no more excuses,
|
And no more covering up your face.
|
|
And I'm going to run away with my baby,
|
Get married and maybe someday we'll have kids that you'll never meet.
|
And I'm gonna tell them stories of how the grandpa would bathe in the glory of all his power,
|
And use his fake friends.
|
And see the air will be better,
|
It will feel much thinner.
|
It will feel like heaven.
|
It will feel so good when I am gone.
|
|
Now see I don't know what you think, you're just a kid.
|
Only 18, where do you think you're going?
|
See, you've got nothing to stand on,
|
You don't have a better place to live.
|
And you'll be wishing that you never left.
|
And the air will be thicker,
|
It will be hard to breathe sometimes.
|
You won't know what hit you,
|
You'll be sad and lonely before you know it.
|
|
Now, don't go make a decision that's going to leave your life down a collision course of failure.
|
But you're a grown up now, you're 18.
|
Just don't come running back to me when you need something,
|
My door is locked.
|
And the air will be humid,
|
It will give you headaches.
|
It will make you sweat.
|
It will be a mistake if you go,
|
And I won't be there to cover up your tracks no more.
|
|
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
|
You can't scare me anymore.
|
And I don't need this in my life,
|
I don't need it anymore.
|
Dad, I'm leaving tonight,
|
You can't scare me anymore.
|
And I don't need this in my life,
|
I don't need it anymore.
|
Goodbye.
