Yeah it’s over,
All the tears I’ve cried in vein,
Yeah you promised,
But you never ever changed, no, no
Feel like you never notice me,
Never saw my face,
Standing in the corner
Trying to catch some grace
We’re so over; I’m in a better place
Gonna let the lights surround me

Yeah I’m gone, moving on
And I’m loving the sound of the beat of the drum
And I’m gone, yeah I’m gone, moving on, moving on
And I’m loving the sound of the beat of the drum

Are you only?
Now you know just how I felt, hey
But you’re too late,
Nobody left to blame but yourself oh yeah, yeah
But you never stop to think about what we have
Ain’t it such a shame, all the good times had?

Can you feel me?
I’m not looking back
I’m going to let the lights surround me

Yeah I’m gone, moving on
And I’m loving the sound of the beat of the drum
And I’m gone, I’m gone, moving on, moving on,
And I’m loving the sound of the beat of the drum
Na na na, na na na
And I’m loving the sound of the beat of the drum
Na na na, na na na
And I’m loving the sound of the beat of the drum

Feel like you never notice me,
Never saw my face
Standing in the corner
Trying to catch some grace
We’re so over (so over), yeah
I’m gonna let the lights surround me yeah

Yeah I’m gone, moving on
And I’m loving the sound of the beat of the drum
