Charli Eglinton - To Myself Goodbye Lyrics

So that's the hand I am dealt
So that's the game I must play
All the years that I had fought to not be someone else's pawn
To finally feel that I could have the right like any other guy to dream
How naive
I must change
If my dreams are destined to resign then damn it all 'cos so will I
And to myself, goodbye
God knows I've seen enough to realise it's not enough to be true
Everyone who earns respect at some point learns they must pretend
And don a mask, put on an act and never let them see beyond the lie
It's worth a try
I must change
And if my dreams are destined to resign then damn it all 'cos so will I
And to myself, goodbye
My reflection was shattered a long time ago
So, a few more fractures, who would know?
I am changed
And if the world's set to transform my dreams
Then the world had best prepare to see
The transformed Leale I am soon to be
We both knew that dream was meant to die
So to myself, goodbye
