I watched a sundown earlier today
I watched it fall into the sea
I let the cool waves hit my buried toes
And I dropped my rose
As it carried out to sea

CHORUS:
Well this is my goodbye
This is my departure from the sunny days
Starting today I will cry and let my tears be my guide
This is my goodbye

Even a rose must wrinkle and die
You won't always fake your feelings
But beaming eyes and pretty smiles
Can't trick a bleeding heart

CHORUS

Well I tried to believe that I was fine
Yet I was suffocating inside
I can't take your plastic words
I want to get out of this stupid town
Starting today

CHORUS

Goodbye, goodbye
It was nice to know you
Goodbye, goodbye
I'm leaving this stupid town behind
Goodbye, goodbye
