Wake up
Wake up
Its time to go
You’ve said good-bye
Now let’s go.

Eight years of my life
Flashed before my eyes
(But really it was only four)
It was time to leave.

Two weeks spent travelling
A seemingly endless time
Upon return
There’s nowhere to go
No place to call home.

Let’s go
Let’s go
It’s time to leave,
You’ve packed your bags
Now let’s go.

A few weeks for exploration
Then it’s time to meet new people
School starts
And the months go by
I want to be home.

A year is up
So much has happened
I’ve made new friends
And it sort of feels like home
Without the memories.

Goodbye
Goodbye
You’ve made new friends
Now it’s time they leave
Now they go.

A new year has started
More friends to make
New countries to explore
Time flies by
Where is home?

The year is ended
Flights are booked
Home is in sight…
But at journeys end
It feels like a different world.

Hurry up
Hurry up
It’s time to make your second goodbyes
The tickets are ready
Now it’s time to go.

Without a thought
A new year starts
Old friend’s new friends
All together
Not tearing apart.

Another year passes
Where has the time gone?
It’s halfway through the year
Another goodbye
The end of the year; add three more.

Wait!
Wait!
It’s time for me to go
I’m not ready to say goodbye
Now it’s time to go.

The months drag on
As I make new friends
(There are no old)
The year is almost up
I’m longing for a home.

Summer is gone and school has started
New cities to adventure to
Sports in different countries.
Friends have changed
And some stayed the same.

Farewell for now
Farewell for now
It’s time to leave
But I’ll see you all
At summers end.

Friends and drama
Fights are breaking out
All I want
Is to disappear
And go home.

School ends without a change
(Fights and drama surround us all)
A new year starts
Things finally work out
But it’s not the same.

Come on
Come on
It’s time to leave
It’s our last trip
Now let’s go.

Our final year
Things are weird
The truth is pushed aside
Where no one can see it
The year goes on.

Graduation
Nobody wants to be the first
To say the unwanted words
That will bring an end
To the past four years.

Goodbye
Goodbye
It’s time to go our separate ways.
I’ll go here you’ll go there
Now it’s time to go.

9 years have flown by
Now I’ve left and I don’t know who I am
I’m meeting new people
And trying to find my way
Away from everything I knew.

All I know is
I’m American; but not really
I’m Malaysian; but not really
I’m a part of a different culture
Mixed between the two.

Here I am
Here I am
It’s time to embrace the new
I’m here now
Now it’s time to explore the new.
