It's darker than usual behind these eyelids tonight
There's a burning sensation behind every blink
And a heartache of loss with every beat

You used to tell me happy new year
Greet me with enthusiasm not even I had
And say goodbye to a year of great memories

But this time you didn't

There was no text with hidden glee
I won't get a greeting with a smile
Or a goodbye to the worst year of our life

Instead you said goodbye to me

You said goodbye to everything

And in your words you left or shattered hearts,
And a bowl of unintentionally broken promises
