Oh my God, and oh well, and okay, i'm so over these same old days
And I'm ready to sail off for a minute, or an hour or two
Things better change. You better leave this stupid place
I'm taking over, I'm in control
And I'm taking myself far away someplace that I would rather stay
Today's the day where we disown all of our babies and our loved ones will stay at home
And we'll sell all of our things for a fresh sail for our brand new boat
Once night falls, we will be gone once and for all
we'll be on our own, and no one will know
That we left them all behind and all that matters is you and I
Rule #1, is to forget bad things we've done and laugh it all off, in the midnight sun
And remember that by leaving here we're better than everyone
Rule #2, is to forget the good things so you won't miss them when we're far gone
Pretty soon you'll see i'm right and there were no ways we could be wrong
Rule #3 is to smile because you're free from everyone who laughed at our dreams
They'll be sorry once we've landed and everything goes just as planned
Rule #4 is to keep rowing more and more so we move forward and keep our word
And we'll weather every storm till we're cozy and we're dry and warm
And everything will turn turn out great as long as we don't just sit and wait
So I wish you all the best and that we all find our time to rest.
