God bless destruction of an ego The condemnation of your pride 'Cause it's quite freeing to hit the ground and take it in your stride Choose what to keep and leave behind The contradictions that you can't change Big blackout nights and dark red skies The imitation of a life you'd love but never tried Is what you'll hunger for in time Hold on, don't forget Careful with words left unsaid I'll look for you in your Sunday best And you can remind me it ends The kind of sex that requires sadness Is not a way to spend your time Don't walk on eggshells if you're not the shy, retiring kind Don't betray your body or your mind A declaration of forgiveness A celebration of desire The sweet seduction of the sand inside an hourglass A ticking clock hung on a wire Hold on, don't forget Careful with words left unsaid I'll look for you in your Sunday best And you can remind me it ends Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Keep thinking one day maybe I will find the beauty in goodbye See the sweetness in the knowing that we really tried Stories bought with broken ribs, taste of sugar on your lips The kind of feeling that you haven't had since were kids Silver linings in defeat, pavement cracks beneath your feet The kind of love you hold onto until you find out what it means I'm thinking one day maybe I will find the freedom in goodbye Find the solace in the promise that you really tried Hold on, don't forget Careful with words left unsaid I'll look for you in your Sunday best And you can remind me it ends
