Say goodbye to autumn leaves
Dust the ashes from my sleeve
Oh sweet serenity
Won’t you sing to me a melody
Of what used to be
Of what used to be
Why can’t we take this day by day
I’m done holding on
To everything that’s killing me
Look me in the eyes and say it’s over
I know I said I’d never let you down
There’s not a day that I don’t blame myself
Don’t blame myself
Can you practice what you preach
Because your words ain’t killing me
Oh crippling reality
What’s in store for me
Except sweet misery
You paint me into the color of these walls
No escaping
Your voice is in these halls
I’m done holding on
To everything that’s killing me
Look me in the eyes and say it’s over
I know I said I’d never let you down
There’s not a day that I don’t blame myself
Why can’t we take this day by day
Why can’t we take this day by day
Why can’t we take this day by day
Why can’t we take this day by day
I’m done holding on to everything that’s killing me
Look me in the eyes and say it’s over
I’m done holding on
To everything that’s killing me
Look me in the eyes and say it’s over
Oh sweet serenity
Won’t you sing to me a melody
Of what used to be
Of what used to be
Why can’t we take this day by day
Why can’t we take this day by day
Why can’t we take this day by day
Why can’t we take this day by day
