Newly Departed

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
