Good Riddance

The embrace of a cold, damp, lonely fall Casting shadows on these moldy walls I can't describe well… so I'll just bite my tongue I found post-it notes with some shit I wrote Before everyone left Now it's a ghost town And what I wrote down was "Good riddance to another wasted year" "All the signs say I should be better but it's never how I feel" It's like my head's in a vise on a swinging door I still get up each morning and come back for more Just to see your faces on that backlit screen They say "stay inside, it's getting bad tonight" You tell your friends that they'll be all right But you won't though… Good riddance to another wasted year All the signs say I should be better but it's never how I feel When so many things have gone right for me I shouldn't be complaining But the light at the end has been getting dimmer So I am just explaining That I'm done with counting on things that used to be certain And I'm done with measuring the parts of me that aren't working Good riddance to another wasted year And I swear the next one will be better It's already here So good riddance Good riddance So good riddance Good riddance
