Tell me when your story started to cave
Did all your heroes give up?
Did they forget to be brave?

I've been trying to even the odds
But you've been tipping the scales
It's not my fault they scream
When I tell them to wail

Just remember:
You teach a man to fish, he'll fish for a day
But you teach him to fly, and he'll fly far away

All you know is now
And all you knew was then
And all you've known is how
And now we'll never begin

So believe me when I say
When I say
Say hello to goodbyes
For the rest of your life

I know it's not what you want to hear
But it's the only truth that's near

When I say
When I say
Say hello to goodbyes
For the rest of your life

Say
Say
Say
Say hello
To goodbyes
For the rest of your life

All you know is now
And all you knew was then
And all you've known is how
And now we'll never begin
