Go home, pretender
I think this is the end here
It's been a long time decidin'
But I think I've found the right end
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life
Hopes crushed and battered
But you laugh as if it didn't matter
This joke is gonna turn blue
And I won't be there to hold you
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life
Go home, debater
It was soon and now it's later
And that's only a piece of paper
So don't you stand there a-laughin' and a-wavin' it
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life
I think this is the end here
It's been a long time decidin'
But I think I've found the right end
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life
Hopes crushed and battered
But you laugh as if it didn't matter
This joke is gonna turn blue
And I won't be there to hold you
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life
Go home, debater
It was soon and now it's later
And that's only a piece of paper
So don't you stand there a-laughin' and a-wavin' it
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life
