goodfellow - i quit lyrics

[verse 1]
i played this game too long, and i wanna quit
don’t know where i belong, but this isn’t it
so so long to all the good times that we had
mostly you telling me
do this or do that
you made me think this feeling was wrong
i wish i had thought for myself all along
there’s no need to follow
or tell me to change
i’m sure that some poor soul will come take my place

[chorus]
and i’ve been trying
and i’ve been dying inside
i’m sorry, but i can’t
spend my life biding my time

[post chorus]
it only got worse, with meaningless work
you promised me something like heaven on earth
but i don’t want the riches, i don’t want the gold
what’s that gonna do for me when i get old?

[verse 2]
work smarter, work harder
do what you gotta do to get farther
don’t have time to wonder why we bother
you don’t wanna make a disappointed father
don’t be bold, don’t you wanna live longer
everything k!lls, there’s no getting stronger
joy is gone, it seems that you forgot her
when you’re old you won’t remember when you lost her
just live your life, you don’t need a meaning in it
stop your heart, you can’t trust the beating in it
and your mind?
everything’s misleading in it
so give it away, just give it away
and when you’re drunk just be a little tipsy
too much noise can be a little risky
choose a path but please don’t be too picky
changing course is tricky
and you know the clock’s a ticking, ticking
don’t you ever look back
grab all your things and run
you don’t have time to stop along the way to feel it
love is gold up ahead
and you know you want some
but vanity’s all that is under the sun
and you’ll begin to think you’re already dead
and you’ll regret the careful life that you led
all that you did, all that you said came verbatim straight off of the script that you read
[chorus]
and i’ve been trying
and i’ve been dying inside
i’m sorry but i can’t
spend my life biding my time

[post chorus]
it only got worse
with meaningless work
you promised me something like heaven on earth
but i don’t want the riches
i don’t want the gold
but what’s that gonna do for me when i get old?

[bridge]
on your mark, get set, go!
he’s sledding!

i’m leaving, i’m leaving, i’ll be alright
i’m leaving, i’m leaving, i’ll be alright
on your mark, get set+
go

[outro]
broken by great expectations
my future was fated
i can’t f+cking take this
i’m sorry i’m not who i’m supposed to be
the kid from my memories turned back a long time ago
and everyone says that i’m changing
how long was i faking?
i’m tired of this part i’ve been playing
i miss how it used to be
it all worked so beautifully
so if this is it then forget it
’cause i quit
