You've walked off the stage
Thinking you've left warmly
I'm still standing here
While you think the ending is a victory

But I'm alone and still performing
Rehearsing the lines you didn't say
You're out in the real world gloating
How this play was good, you'll start a new one in a soon-coming day

So I'll say it all here because you'll never find this
You never saw the truth in my eyes so why would you look for it now?

I miss the you I made up in my head
It would be easier if you hated me
Then at least I'd have jumped ship sooner
There'd be no new wounds to heal

Your kindness haunted me
Cauterized the old hurts into scars
But opened new wounds on my skin
And no other person can swing around and deal with it

But how can I?
How can I heal when there's no one around when I cry
No one to wipe my tears, to tell me it'll be fine
When you said it, it was a lie
But at least it was a lie I could keep in me heart as mine

I'll have to do it nonetheless
Now that the issue of you has been addressed
It's time for me to go, to abandon this old show
I hope someday you'll know

How you helped me
But this is goodbye,
Sorry I don't need to be around
