You’ll come on over to my place
But it’s all for nothing
Because your plans are to move away
And I’m a signpost on your journey
To a better life

I’m the one you tie on
Before you find yourself
Elsewhere and full of vigor
One more dead boy to trail along

This isn’t good enough to make you stay
I cannot blame you
It’s this wretched state
That forced you to move on

You won’t miss me tomorrow
And I won’t judge you
How on Earth could I?
For we really didn’t begin at all

Others have left me the same way
And I’m starting to get used to it
We end and you truly begin
Farewell, truly farewell…and goodbye
