Start A New Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Go home, pretender
I think this is the end here
It's been a long time decidin'
But I think I've found the right end.
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life.
Hopes crushed and battered
But you laugh as if it didn't matter
This joke is gonna turn blue
And I won't be there to hold you.
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life.
Go home, debater
It was soon and now it's later
And that's only a piece of paper
So don't you stand there a-laughin' and a-wavin' it.
You're gonna go away, start a new life
Forget today, start a new life
Start a new life.
