Closure
Business cards thrown into a fire….
Leaving a lifestyle behind with no desire….
A cup thrown into the ocean….
Showing absolutely no kind of emotion….
No longer keeping in touch,
With the ones you used to love so much.
Packing up my things and heading out,
It was revealed to me what you’re all about.
So, I’m leaving this all behind me….
Walking the streets of gold is where you’ll find me.
So I sit up in this room at night,
Waiting for the time to be just right….
And chances are that I might….
Say goodbye to you tonight.
The voiceless puppet will no longer reside,
In your wretched heart, where all I did was hide….
Don’t come to me with your fake tears,
I don’t want them….
Nor will I wipe them from your face.
The only intention in my mind right now,
Is to take every memory of us and erase….
Erase….. Erase!!!!
Don’t come for me….
Don’t call my name!
My heart and world are both in shambles….
And you’re the one to blame.
Your words are like a sharp knife,
Cutting deep into my wrist….
And to think, you were the one….
You struck me hard with your ways….
You cut me oh so deep….
And you stood there watching me bleed.
You stood there watching my broken heart bleed….
How dare you!
How dare you think….
You were the one sent from above?
You never loved me….
You only wanted to treat me as a puppet….
A marionette….
And now I’m erasing myself from your world….
And I have not one ******* regret.
I’ll be fine….
I’ll be where I want to be….
Out of sight….
Out of mind….
**** the truth and everything it stands for….
Cause the truth is what I will never find.
So let me pour myself out….
Let me bleed until I can bleed no more….
Let me show you the pain you’ve caused….
As I walk out of this door.
