The Last Goodbye
How many times am I going to say goodbye?
Well this goodbye will be the last time.
If I claim to be a strong girl,
then why do I keep coming back for more?
The silent treatment is getting old,
why can’t you just say how you feel, for once be bold?
It’s been a while since things have been great,
so don’t try to call again, it’s already too late.
I started moving on slowly after the first goodbye…
How many times will I say goodbye?
Well this goodbye will be the last time.

You say that I’m the one who’s changed,
because deflecting blame only helps you gain.
The words “I’m sorry” never escape your lips,
but I forgave you anyways, and let you push me past my limits.
You think it’s better if we don’t talk,
well I agree, and this time don’t fake shock.
How many times will I say goodbye?
well this goodbye will be the last time.
The reminder of you is wrapped around my wrist, around my heart,
but all you’ve left behind are scars and ugly marks.
This story has gotten old, it’s been playing on repeat,
so just move out of the way of other handsome bachelors I’d like to meet.
No more waking up with wet eyes from dreaming of you in my sleep,
I pretend its not so, but in reality, the pain still runs deep.
How many times am I going to say goodbye?
well this goodbye will be the one last time.
