Daniel puts the kids to bed,They’re screaming,Oh the gods must be crazyWell jimmy’s on the road tonight,She doesn’t recognize her countryMy father’s in the room next doorCrying with his ma at sixty-fiveWell, every time I close my eyesI just see you written in big lightsYou know what it says?Stop making this hurtAnd say goodbye like you mean itStop trying on this hurtJust say goodbye like you mean itSay goodbye like you mean itMy mamma’s in the house tonightTryna break free of new jerseyWhile the kids are on the street,And they’re crying, let me live in my countryBut me and rayWe got a dream and a car,We’re like free as the nightSo how come every time I take a driveI just see it written on street signs?And you know what it says?Stop making this hurt
And say goodbye like you mean itStop trying on this hurtJust say goodbye like you mean itJust say goodbye like you mean itBut if we take the sadnessOut of saturday nightI wonder what we’ll be leftWith anything worth the fight?I wanna run from the darknessWanna shout at the lightIt’s coming over me nowTwo, three, four, fiveOh god, we barely survivedJust say goodbye like you mean itStop making this hurtSay goodbye like you mean itSay goodbye like you mean itJust say goodbye like you mean itStop making this hurtSay goodbye like you mean itSay goodbye like you mean itSay goodbye like you mean itSay goodbye like you mean itCome on, baby, baby, babyStop making this hurt
