Oh, I - I watch it all go down
Closed eyes - pretend noone's around
So I - I chose to play the clown
Or blow by and never make a sound
(CHORUS:)
Any other guy would wanna take it outside
But I'd never even try -
who wants to get their lights knocked out?
Any other guy would wanna stir it up some,
But I'd rather say goodbye
Turn 'round - say it to my face
No sound - Everything's a race
Lose ground - lost in your embrace
Leave town - never leave a trace
(CHORUS)
Hardly know what anything's for
Just for show, I'm slamming the door
Even so, my heart and my head are an open book
(CHORUS x2)
I'd rather say goodbye
