I'M Breaking Up With You

My Dearest Linda,

Time has come for us to play a different game
You deserve better than this life,this note,me
The world isn't wrong about us,I'm what's wrong with us
No longer can I shoulder the pain that I cause you
Breaking up with you is something I never thought I'd do
For once in my life I have to do the right thing
My heart is no more than an empty vessel
I promise you will never see me again,goodbye love
