We have said goodbye many times before,
And yet it was you I continue to adore.
Every minute of everyday,
I fight with myself on why you just can’t stay.
I want you to love me again.
Except with this final goodbye, I knew it was the end.
You had cheated and cheated,
And the same lies were repeated and repeated.
I wanted to say goodbye to all the lonely nights,
And all the constant fights,
But I never could stay away from you.
Nothing could make me love you less,
Not even the thought of you giving her a loving caress.
I became my own worst enemy,
Thinking of all I had let you take from me.
You took my confidence,
And shattered it to bits;
You took my love,
And gave it to that ditz.
I mistakenly thought this was how love goes,
With all the drama and constant blows.
I'm sad to say that after all of that,
I never did stepped up to bat.
We’re over now,
All thanks to you.
You took a chance,
And now I'm never looking back.
So here’s to goodbyes,
Some good and some bad.
It may hurt now,
But trust me.
Love is a DRAG.

About the lies I definately know, he was doing that as you know... The cheating? Maybe he was, maybe he wasn't. I don't know anymore, I really don't. I loved him to death, I still DO love him to death. But you're right, sometimes a final goodbye is what is needed. But I just don't feel ready, my hearts breaking enough already.
