[Verse 1]
You get to feel so guilty
Got so much for so little
Then you find that feeling just won't go away
You're holding on to every little thing so tightly
Till there's nothing left for you anyway

[Chorus]
Goodbye, you can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

[Verse 2]
You wanted to get somewhere so badly
You had to lose yourself along the way
You changed your name
Well that's okay, it's necessary
And what you leave behind you don't miss anyway

[Chorus]
Goodbye, you can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

[Bridge]
'Cause I'm already gone
Felt that way all along
Closer to you every day
I didn't want it that much anyway

[Verse 3]
You're taking steps that make you feel dizzy
Then you learn to like the way it feels
You hurt yourself, you hurt your lover
Then you discover
What you thought was freedom is just greed

[Chorus]
Goodbye, and it's an emotional
Goodnight, I'll be up with the sun
Are you still holding on?
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

U2

U2 is an Irish rock band from Dublin, which started in post-punk but soon incorporated elements from various musical genres (funk, electronica, blues). Composed of Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen Jr (drums and percussion), the band is noted for a sound built on melodic instrumentals, and lyrics, filled with spiritual imagery, personal themes and sociopolitical concerns. U2 sold more than 150 million records worldwide, and created some of the most lavish, memorable and profitable concert tours in history. Their success also helped the bandmembers advocate for human rights and philanthropic causes.
