[Verse 1]
Goodnight cruel world, this girl's had enough
Wanna climb into bed and pull my covers up
You push, you pull, I bend, but I won't break
So goodnight cruel world, this girl's had enough for today
[Verse 2]
Who lit the match? 'Cause this world is on fire
I wanna believe we're not down to the wire
I don't have the answers, but tonight, that's okay
Goodnight cruel world, this girl's gonna call it a day
[Bridge]
I'm not givin' up and I'm not givin' in
Even if it's a fight I can't win
I'm still gonna dream and I'm still gonna rise
And I'm gonna try again
[Verse 3]
But tonight, I'm tired, the world feels unkind
So I'll say a prayer as I close my eyes
I still have to feel like love's gonna win
So goodnight cruel world, this girl's not throwin' the towel in
[Outro]
No, I'm not givin' in
Tomorrow, we'll try this again
