Or

Let’s go out with a bang
Why not put some light in the sky
While we explode

Let’s put on a show
That’s all it’s ever been
At least that’s what we told them

And we’ve been holding on for so long
Afraid to let go
Afraid to move on
Let me go
Or let me go

Oh hell we’ve had some fun
We are so bright and quiet
We never said enough
Except when we were drunk on red wine

And I know what you’ve been thinking
A house and picket fence like dreaming
And I know what you’ve been thinking
You’re beautiful when you’re scheming

You’re a carnival game
rigged with cheap prizes
You’re a ferris wheel
a big ride going in circles

And there’s no one in line
at the top’s a great view
but I’m not buying any more
tickets to you

Take a chance
Change our mind
We don’t know
what we’ll find

Let’s do it all the way
Firecracker bright and loud
If we’re ready to light
let’s have fun, do it right

And we’ve been holding on for so long
Afraid to let go
Afraid to move on
Let me go
Or let me go

*Personal note: My last post made me dig out another old song from the college vault about him. Remembering it had a really weird melody that fit the weird stanza’s which I liked ’cause it was so different. But, weird melody’s are hard to remember and I took poor notes. I think I’ll just have to start over with it.
