Goodbyes made me see
your kisses are what I truly miss
how we would reminisce
wow we were so lucky
when we would lay under the stars
my hand fit in your’s so perfectly
now all I can remember are the scars
how we would fight all night
I would always be the apologizer
it would be such a fright
every time I saw the investigator
I would assure him that I fell
but the bruises I attained
were more than an accident
you were always so confident
I should have restrained
I should have stayed away
but I had to stay
I couldn't say goodbye
and never asked why
I was scared
I wasn't prepared
for all the pain you caused me
but the goodbyes made me see
how cruel you were to me
remembering that how can it be
that I’m so lonely
