These words tear me apart
They are the scars on our black hearts
The words that destroy worlds
And annihilate relationships
They are the words coming from my lips
[Chorus]
Its time for us to say goodbye
You promised me you wouldn't cry
Sometimes these things just have to end
We're better off as enemies
Then lovers or friends
These words rolling off my tongue
Just scream we are so young
Why do we have to live this life
This taste so bittersweet to me
I guess it wasn't meant to be
Its time for us to say goodbye
You promised me you wouldn't cry
Sometimes these things just have to end
We're better off as enemies
Then lovers or friends
[Bridge]
So say goodbye and let it ring out
Because I know that its what we need
Because this is how we bleed
Its simple as that
Its not quite combat
This is just how we live
Its time for us to say goodbye (say goodbye)
I promised you I wouldn't cry (But I cried)
Sometime these things just have to end
We're better off as enemies (We're better off as enemies)
Then lovers or friends

I really like this, it makes me think of a Secondhand Serenede song called "vulnerable" actually. I think it is a very good write hun. Good job.
