lyrics

we've been waiting for this forever
never felt like we'd ever see it get better
but i always knew that we'd go far
the Peppermints are the sweetest stars

well, we knew it was lost
and no amount of pretend can fix
what is meant to break
but it's not all that bad
it's something that's gonna stick around
for a long, long time

oh will you let me take your the hand
and lead you through this merry land?
i know there's no good in goodbyes
but sometimes you just have to cry

but they know that you
always love them

and they know that you
will always be there

and they know that you
loved to build them up

and they know that you
cried

i now know what i want
and god help anybody who tries to get in my way
the sum of our parts
the undeniable proof that we were here

we've been waiting for this forever
a little ribbon on all the pain we caused together
they closed the lid, grew closer to the light
the Peppermints bow and say goodnight

let's summer in my field of kin
where i have you hand in hand again
i've always sang my hearts accord
and will for as long as my body affords

so let me take you by the hand
and lead you through this merry land
i want to live the life i wish
and so with heavy hearts we split

there's nothing good about goodbyes
but there's no good in living lies
just turn a smile towards the end
don't think i didn't have this planned
