Good Riddance - Blue Black Eyes Lyrics

Outlived a wasted lie,
Too soon to say goodbye.
One plot to call your own,
Now it's our turn to cry.

I've been through this before.
These things are hard to take.
Was it too much to live for?
Once choice you felt you had to make.

And I've pissed my time away
Through countless lifelong wasted days.
Why are all the simple things so lost in sorrow
And my perspective so unclear?

Life's cold and thick with lies
Seen through the blue black eyes.
We squander as we smile,
Things which once appeared worthwhile.

How views on life distort
When we see a life cut short.
No cause to calculate.
Absentia renders no debate.

And I've pissed my time away
Through countless lifelong wasted days.
Why are all the simple things so lost in sorrow
And my perspective so unclear?

Through pain I've grown to learn
Just as long as life still burns.
Won't sit around and wait
Until I burn down heavens gates.

I know that I've pissed my time away
Through countless lifelong wasted days.
Why are all the simple things so lost in sorrow
And my perspective so unclear?
