Goodbye
I hear the creaking of the door
As you leave one final time
This is too painful to bear
So I squeeze my eyes shut tight
In our final moments
I can barely say goodbye
What is there left for me to say
We must go our separate ways
I know that you’ll wake up
And one day realize your mistake
You said you’d never hurt me
But I’ve never felt this pain
I feel the tears
Trickling down
Following me
As I hit the ground
I cry out loud and my heart mourns, too...
The loss of the piece
That I gave to you
You took it and ran
And you didn’t look back
Was it really that easy
To leave me this fast?
You say you still want to be friends
Is that how this whole story ends?
All the love I gave to you
Stomped on by your very shoes
Smushed until it disappears
Evaporates like all my tears
You never loved me
Because if you did
I would have known
And cherished it
The door is closed
And you are far
Now I know
What the dangers are
Falling for a guy
Who has no heart
