Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every attempt to is filled with holes
Reads like a polygraph, I'm told
I'm not bitter, anyway
Let it go
[Verse 2]
I never sleep still, lest I forget
Tied down by handicaps instead
I'm not bitter, anyway
But I didn't want it to turn out this way
[Chorus]
Sing a long goodnight
Forfeit any fight
Refuse to rest assured
It comes with no reply
Hold on too tight
Hang on every word
[Bridge]
If it all ended tonight
You know that I wouldn't mind
Back to the good old times
Before it won
If it all ended tonight
You know that I wouldn't mind
Back to the good old times
Before it won
[Chorus]
Sing a long goodnight
Forfeit any fight
Refuse to rest assured
It comes with no reply
Hold on too tight
Hang on every word
[Outro]
Sing a long goodnight
Forfeit any fight
Refuse to rest assured
It comes with no reply
Hold on too tight
I'll hang on every word
