The Brightest Bulb Has Burned Out / Screws Falls Out

You told me that your 20 years have gone by much too fast
And you've been hoping this year will be better than the last
You said you've been waging a war against the loneliest of nights
With the strongest drinks and longest lines
It's not that big a surprise
That you're feeling more dead than alive
You're feeling more dead than alive

So I'll let you know
If you need, somewhere to go
I'll be listening when you call
And I'll be there if you fall off
If you need someone to believe in you
I'll let you know I will

You said the hole in your head
Has gotten bigger than the hole in your chest
And you're stuck between the past and present tense
You said you've been waging a war against so many years of lies
With stronger drinks and longer lines
It's not that big a surprise
That you're feeling more dead than alive
You're feeling more dead than alive

So I'll let you know
If you need, somewhere to go
I'll be listening when you call
And I'll be there if you fall off
If you need someone to believe in you
I'll let you I will
I'll let you I will
I'll let you I will, but sometimes...

You gotta let it go!
Gotta let it go!

So this pen, is starting to become
A pipe bomb and these songs
Have turned to anthems again
To everything that's changed
And to everything that's gone away, here's my condolences
To the future I never met
It's gone and never coming back, it's not coming back
So don't hold on to your past
You gotta let it go!
Gotta let it go!

'Cause friends leave as time fades away
The people and the places along the way
Without a doubt
Yeah, screws fall in and screws, they fall out

Tomorrow's gone up in smoke
And I wonder when I'm alone
Where'd my convictions go?
So, to everyone that's gone away
Or fades away, or stays the same, here's my apologies
To the person that I used to be
Before I burned down every bridge and every inch
Of everything I used to know
I gotta let it go!
Gotta let it go!

'Cause friends leave as time fades away
The people and the places along the way
Without a doubt
Yeah, screws fall in and screws, they fall out

Friends leave as time fades away
The people and the places along the way
So don't hold onto your past
No, it's never coming back
(You gotta let it go!) friends leave as time fades away
(Gotta let it go!) the people and the places along the way

Friends leave as time fades away
The people and the places along the way
Without a doubt, yeah, screws fall in and screws fall out
Without a doubt, yeah, screws fall in and screws fall out
Without a doubt, yeah, screws fall in and screws fall out
Without a doubt, yeah, screws fall in and screws fall out
Without a doubt, yeah, screws fall in, and screws, they fall out
