Long ago 
Just like the hearse you die to get in again 
We are so far from you 

Burning on just like a match you strike to incinerate 
The lives of everyone you knew 
And what's the worst to take
from every heart you break (heart you break)
And like a blade you stain 
Well I've been holding on tonight 

[Chorus]
What's the worst that I could say? 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

Came a time 
When every star falls brought you to tears again 
We are the very hurt you sold 
And whats the worst you take
from every heart you break 
And like a blade you stain 
Well I've been holding on tonight 

[Chorus]
What's the worst that I could say? 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

And if you carry on this way 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

Can you hear me? 
Are you near me? 
Can we pretend
To leave and then
Meet again
When both our cars collide?

[Chorus]
Whats the worst that I could say? 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight 

And if you carry on this way 
Things are better if I stay 
So long and goodnight 
So long and goodnight
