Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One, two, three, four
Is time to leave the house today
Its time to find myself a way
Oh yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
It's time to say goodbye tonight
To the wonder years and endless fights
Oh yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
I'm gonna try to find a place where I belong
Where no one says to me I'm wrong
I'm not gonna make the same mistake
I'm dreaming you away from me
Oh yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Today I'm gonna make you mine
Forget it I'll go on with my life
Oh yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
It's time to change
And say the things that 're on my mind
It's time for me to just say
No more fooling around
And now I'm ready
No ones getting me down
Oh except me
Time to turn around
Bye bye baby
No ones pushing me around
It's time for me to think about
What meant to me and what's a ??????
Oh yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
It's time for me to find the words
To get me out of the mess that makes me hurt
Oh yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
It's time to change
And say the things that 're on my mind
It's time for me to just say
No more fooling around
And now I'm ready
No ones getting me down
Oh except me
Time to turn around




Bye bye baby
No ones pushing me around
