Well, the night was almost over And the moon was swallowed into a lonely sky I don't regret the things I told her I'd do it all again But seeing her cry It made me hate the world around me And curse at all the rest And hope to die I could see her heart was pounding It was pounding in her chest As we said goodbye Goodbye, I'm sorry, but I've gotta go Your life's not for me, I'm a star, you know There's a rumour going 'round that I can't justify Goodbye to the endless wondering Of what the next day is going to bring There's no room in your heart for a man such as I I moved away the morning after And I tried to be a star in a leading role In the night I'd hear her laughter I'd hear it from afar, from where I left my soul Though I know it was the right thing My life has been a blur since I made her cry All my made up friends are fighting I hope it's clear to her why I said goodbye Goodbye, I'm sorry, but I've gotta go Your life's not for me, I'm a star, you know There's a rumour going 'round that I can't justify Goodbye to the endless wondering Of what the next day is going to bring There's no room in your heart for a man such as I I'm not cut out for this This bickering and screaming Defending myself against the dreams you've been dreaming Oh, I'm a nice guy Jesus Christ, I Feel like you're teaming up to burn me alive Burn me alive, burn me alive Goodbye Oh, goodbye
