[Verse 1]
I hung my name on a nail
Watched it bend in the heat
Mirror got tired of my face
It kept a debt in its teeth
I wore my rage like a coat
Wore it through every room
Now it falls to the floor
Like dust in a tomb
[Pre-Chorus]
Something in me is smiling
When I try to run
Hands on the wheel go colder
Till I come undone
I hear my own voice fading
Under yours tonight
And the last thing I know
Is the shape of your light
[Chorus]
Goodbye, goodbye
I let him in
Goodbye, goodbye
I’m not me again
Goodbye, goodbye
Take what’s left of my skin
Goodbye, goodbye
(ha-ha-ha) let the dark begin
[Verse 2]
I used to bite every word
Like it owed me blood
Used to stand in the fire
And call it enough
But I’ve been seeing your face
In the back of my eyes
A throne in the smoke
A grin in disguise
[Pre-Chorus]
Something in me is smiling
When I try to pray
The best parts of me
Keep slipping away
I feel you moving closer
When I close my eyes
And the last thing I know
Is the end of my life
[Chorus]
Goodbye, goodbye
I let him in
Goodbye, goodbye
I’m not me again
Goodbye, goodbye
Take what’s left of my skin
Goodbye, goodbye
(ha-ha-ha) let the dark begin
[Bridge]
If I scream, don’t answer
If I fight, let me fall
I buried my old name deep
But it still hears the call
I’m the hand at the window
I’m the crack in the door
I’m the boy I abandoned
On the basement floor
[Final Chorus]
Goodbye, goodbye
I let him in
Goodbye, goodbye
I’m not me again
Goodbye, goodbye
Take what’s left of my skin
Goodbye, goodbye
(ha-ha-ha) let the dark begin
