The Big Goodbye

Lyrics: Ryan Met/Jack Met Music: Ryan Met/Jack Met/Leroy Van Dyke/Buddy Black I wrote a song 'bout being weak Now I hear congratulations They know me in L.A. now it seems Today I finally get to leave Leave this little life I'm used to The shows that no one came to They're shrinking in my rearview And I should be so happy I could cry If this is what a happy end looks like Someone tell me why, why I'm all in my head Why you're all on my mind Why it feels like my friends are leaving me behind Why I miss all the shit I've seen a million times No, don't look back, just drive Someone tell me why Why my town feels like home for the first time in years Why'd I need to be known, they ****ing know me here But it could be a movie with a feel good end Oh God, I hope it is Then my whole life could sound like this Just make it sound like this Oh, wish I could take you all where I'm heading Guess I can FaceTime into all of your weddings And I'll be on your TVs, so you won't forget me You won't forget me, right? Oh, then tell me why, why I'm all in my head Why you're all on my mind Why it feels like my friends are leaving me behind Why I miss all the shit I've seen a million times No, don't look back, just drive Someone tell me why Why my town feels like home for the first time in years Why'd I need to be known, they ****ing know me here But it could be a movie with a feel good end Oh God, I hope it is Then my whole life could sound like this Don't turn around, kid, you know what you're doing Tell us about it at the 10-year reunion We'll all be here, kid, saying we knew ya Hope you can make it to the 10-year reunion Hope you can make it to the 10-year reunion Just make it sound like this Hope you can make it to the 10-year reunion Alright then Just make it sound like this Just make it sound like this Just make it sound like this And someday I'll sing about the shit I did And not the shit I'll miss Then my whole life can sound like this
