Long ago 
Just like the hearse, you die to get in again 
We are so far from you 

Burning on, just like a match you strike to incinerate 
The lives of everyone you know 
And what’s the worst you take (worst you take) 
From every heart you break (heart you break) 
And like a blade you stain (blade you stain) 
Well, I've been holding on tonight 

What’s the worst that I can say? 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

Came a time 
When every star falls 
Brought you to tears again 
We are the very hurt you sold 
And what’s the worst you take (worst you take) 
From every heart you break (heart you break) 
And like a blade you stain (blade you stain) 
Well, I've been holding on tonight 

What’s the worst that I can say? 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

Well, if you carry on this way 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

Can you hear me 
Are you near me 
Can we pretend to leave and then 
We’ll meet again, when both our cars collide 

What’s the worst that I can say 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

Well, if you carry on this way 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnig
