goodbye
brush your new clothing off
people are staring at you
they stare at the one we loved
everyone's split in two
and you feel like you're on the porch
with no way down
everybody feels down

goodbye
talk to the burning night
i am a nervous wreck
lets peel your new clothing off
i never thought it would be this easy
and you feel like you're on the cover
of a magazine
everybody comes down

don't talk unless spoken to
it's impolite and you're so rude
your sister was a taste that I can't ignore
alone in a burning night
your mother's temper holds you tight
her scissors left a mark you can't ignore

goodbye
talk to me
talk to me
i am not listening
goodbye
you feel like you're all the way down
at the bottom of the well
well, everybody comes up

don't talk unless spoken to
it's impolite and you're so rude
your sister was a spark in a burning night i can't rewind
alone in a burning night
your mother's temper holds you tight
her scissors left a mark you can't ignore
