Going Out Bright

If I'm going out, I'm going out bright
I wanna light up the sky in the middle of the night
Another dying star to guide your way
If I'm gonna try, I'm gonna try hard
I'm so tired of the fighting with myself everyday
I can't understand why it's this way
I've been sinking, getting lower
And every day, we're getting older
And I can't take it any longer
I've got to live now before it's over
So, I've been looking toward the future
What it holds and now I'm seeing clearer
No more looking back into the mirror
I'm going out
If I'm gonna love, I'm gonna love all
No more hiding the true feelings deep inside my little brain
Say what you mean if you can speak
If I'm gonna cry, then just let me cry
I'm happy and I'm sad and angry all in one day
But that doesn't mean that I'm not ok
Just because I'm sinking, getting lower
And every day, we're getting colder
But I can't fake it any longer
I've got to speak now before it's over
I've been thinking about tomorrow
With all it's pleasures, pains, and sorrows
No more waiting for time to borrow
Because I'm going out
It's my chance to get it right
I've been hiding all my life
If I'm going out, I'm going out loud
No more waiting for tomorrow when there's only a today
Plans aren't the same as living full
So if I'm gonna try, I'm gonna try hard
I'm so tired of the fighting with myself everyday
I know what to do and it's time for a change
So, I'm going out
