This Isn'T Goodnight

I’ll be sure to make this loud and clear I don’t need any confusion on your part It’ll be hard for me to be so confused When I know what I need to do I’m not calling to say goodnight boy I’m calling to say goodbye A final kiss goodbye Before I bury our love In the graveyard of my heart You left me breathless for far too long I’d like to start breathing again It’s awfully difficult to breathe When you’ve got your cupid’s chokehold on my neck You drain the love from my eyes You suck the blood from my veins You bleach the color from my world And that’s where I draw the line This isn’t goodnight, sweetheart This is goodbye And not just goodbye for now But goodbye forever I promise you I won’t write I’ll make sure not to call I want you to die of anticipation And of a pathetically broken heart
