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

Curtain Call(how you helped but hurt me)
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
