Bye for Now Lyrics

I never thought that this would be the way it was

But then I grew up

Now when I open my eyes, I just see darkened skies

Not starry nights

Looking everywhere, I'm seeing missiles in the sky

Scared to bring a kid up in this world, it doesn't feel right

Global warming, fires burning, tons of smoke up in the sky

Everybody's looking towards the politicians for advice

It's about time to say goodnight

You've had it all wrong for all your life

As we walk on the edge of a knife

Guess this is goodbye for now

People sending the kids to the skies

They're not even getting to live their lives

We keep feeding them lies, it's alright

Make up for us, you'll be fine

We never thought that this would be the way it was

But then we grew up

We couldn't sit around, watch TV or cartoons together

Man, that sucks

I remember waking up inside a pillow fort

Seeing all our friends all of the time, we were a happy sort

Haven't seen them in a while, hope that they are doing fine

Crazy how much you can grow apart in such a little time

It's about time to say goodnight

You've had it all wrong for all your life

As we walk on the edge of a knife

Guess this is goodbye for now

People sending the kids to the skies

They're not even getting to live their lives

We keep feeding them lies, it's alright

Make up for us, you'll be fine

Is it really fair to say

That we had everything

That we would've wanted

Is this what we wanted

Everything that we have done has led us up to now

Time to make a choice of what we will and what we won't allow

Chasing things and stupid dreams and try to get it all out

Thought that we had everything but we went and lost it all

It's about time to say goodnight

You've had it all wrong for all your life

As we walk on the edge of a knife

Guess this is goodbye for now

People sending the kids to the skies

They're not even getting to live their lives

We keep feeding them lies, it's alright

Make up for us, you'll be fine
