The Big Goodbye
Farewell to Illusions: Unveiling the Heart's Truth in 'The Big Goodbye'Lyrics
I don't give a damn
I am indifferent; I don't care.
Tomorrow I'll be movin' on
Tomorrow, I'll be moving on.
So why are we pretending?
Why are we pretending?
'Cause you know who I am
You are aware of my identity.
It's what I told you all along
As I have consistently stated.
And you know this is ending
This situation is coming to an end.
I can't be your saint or shining knight
I cannot be your virtuous person or hero.
Ain't no way to paint this black heart white
There is no way to make my dark heart appear pure.
You went to all that trouble
You put in effort and trouble.
I hate to burst your bubble
I regret to disappoint you.
But here comes the big goodbye
Now, it's time for a significant farewell.
You're looking for a man
You seek a man, a fairy tale hero.
A hero from a fairytale
You are only a dreamer.
You're nothing but a dreamer
'Cause babe, I'm in a band
Because, darling, I am a musician.
And I can't be your holy grail
I cannot be your ultimate goal.
I'm a liar and a schemer
I admit to being deceitful and cunning.
I know I took your heart last night
I acknowledge taking your heart previously.
But now it's time to see the light
But now, it's time for you to realize the truth.
You went to all that trouble
You put in effort and trouble.
And I hate to burst your bubble
I regret to disappoint you again.
But here comes the big goodbye
This is the moment of the significant farewell.
I can't be your saint or shining knight
I cannot be your virtuous person or hero.
So now it's time to see the light
Now, it's time for you to see the truth.
You went to all that trouble
You put in effort and trouble.
And I hate to burst your bubble
Once again, I regret to disappoint you.
And though your heart is breaking
Even though your heart is breaking,
There ain't no point in faking
There is no value in pretending.
So here comes the big goodbye
This is the significant farewell.
