Goodbye
You don't take my breath away,
you rip it from my lungs.
Again,
and again.
You don't tell the truth,
you spin stories of deceit.
You lie,
and lie,
and ******* lie.
Over and over,
crimson and clover,
but we won't dance to this song.
You don't play pretend,
you change completely,
to become someone new.
Ravenous and unwilling,
to ask for help,
or let it go.
Just let
it
go
You are not my sister.
You are but her shell
with a demon soul
that quietly slithered in
and you won't let her go
just let
her
go
And the moods
and the manias
they'll just keep cycling through.
Over and over,
crimson and clover,
But I refuse to sing this song with you
because I'm letting you go
I'm just letting *you go
