Goodbye

You hurt me, I don't want to go through that again,

I won't put you through that, I'll no longer pretend.

All we had to do was talk, was it really that hard?

You have no idea, because I didn't want to lose you right from the start.

Now you're just begging for attention.

Believe me I'm not, can't you just come home?

I am home can't you see, you messed it all up, beyond repairing.

You're right, I did, and I'm sorry for that, I know sorry doesn't cut it, especially for something like that.

I'll give you one more, yes one more chance, fuck that one up, and you'll never see me again...

Thank you and I won't, you have my word, you giving me mercy is like freeing a bird,

So many emotions, so many mistakes, we're both human beings with hearts for goodness sake.

I'll try my best, but I won't ever pester, because saying goodbye would pain me beyond disaster.

Then don't, just be you, don't put up a front, you don't have to say goodbye

for I've given you a new start, just promise me something,

a promise is all I ask, if you're able to keep, one day you'll get me back,

but definitely not now, you're far from that part, just don't say goodbye for I've given you a new start.

With these words I seal this deal, but remember, fuck it up,

and we're done, this shit is for real,

Look from all angles, instead of just one, just don't say goodbye, I'm asking you hun.

This can work, but just not right now, let's face our demons, then love will once again be found.

Just promise me something, just one more thing, take of that mask

so I can help your suffering.

Just don't put up a front, don't put up a shield, because if you do I won't know how you feel,

We have a deep connection, an unbreakable bond, but saying goodbye,

would be like throwing a rock in the pond.

Those waters would ripple, those ties would be cut, there'd be nothing you could say, except for the word "but",

So stop all this pretending, this isn't a game, just don't say goodbye

and then everything will one day... be the same.
