Goodbye my dearest foe
Here's  to fledging teen sorrow
Today  forgotten, tomorrow
Is a promise to be broken
We should not prolong
What  seems right until it's wrong
One  more sad so long
One more Dear John letter

I  am not afraid to step into this grave
It's not enough
No, it's not enough

I wanted to live long enough
To  regret the billy clubs
And lament the gateway drugs
See the first missteps through wisdom
In a round room fit for battered clowns
We agree the circus freaks are buttoned-down

I am not afraid to step down from the stage
It's not enough

Can you see the light the tunnel's dead-end is inside
We're almost there, we've almost made it
Everybody's transcending in the dark
Every one of us leaves his mark
Every one of us wears a self-inflicted Purple Heart
I am not afraid to step into this grave
It's not enough
No, it's not enough
