People my people, farewell and adieu, I am leaving you all for a life behind the walls Old friends and lovers, take care of each other this love came to be, nothing but a memory Gone are the times when I knew you were mine but I'll keep them inside among the things that I hide Playing the fools just won't do me no good so I try to play straight, though it's much to late Movin' on - But sleeping the day away Movin' on - From all of my thoughts today You might try to find me, but there's nothing that binds me here, memories fade from the life that I'd made Everyone's beggin' for answers but there's simply nothing to tell, 'cause I don't know myself Figuring out what my soul is about is a dark road to take, with a new friend - heartache I am not leaving for the lack of the believing to follow the heart is the hardest part All the scenes I keep replaying only make me angry From another point of view could someone understand me? Caught up with myself, with thoughts and words we've never spoken
Keep it all inside too long and everything will be broken You stopped me at the supermarket, asked me how I'm doing Once again I'm lying to you, tell you that I'm alright Everything between us seem to sadly fade away Til' there's only me, your photograph and every Sunday Mary my love - It's late, and I'm tired of myself this isn't leading anywhere Mary I've realized, I'm just selfish, jealous guy but this is me letting you go Goodbye People my people, forget what I've done I'm off down the highway, straight into the sun Movin' on - But sleeping the day away Movin' on - But sleeping the day away There will be no happy end, for romantic fools like me All we do is run, while love is bleeding in the streets We have our whole damned lives to wear our problems down, and then we say the words: "I love you", when the words don't mean a thing Crossed the Rubicon, I'm movin' on Keep the memories, this town is yours
