Good Riddance
"GOOD RIDDANCE!"
I'll have to make some changes
Things will never be the same
What you did touched me
There's no one else to blame
What you did was unforgivable
The time we used to share
I've given up being the victim
And you don't even care
A tiger can't change it's stripes
You'll take your guilt to the ground
As the dirt covers your face
Two words can bring me round
“YOU'RE GONE”
I look into the mirror
I see no happiness
All the love I gave you
Has turned to emptiness
The love I gave has fallen
The time we used to share
You've left me here believing
In love that wasn't there
Changes, growing older
Root myself to the ground
Word to the wise - You got what's coming
Two words can bring me round
“YOU'RE GONE”
Last I looked in your eyes all I saw was foul
There's just no way to save it now
And everything I felt
Changes
For some reason you're questioning why
I always believed it gets better
One difference between you and I
Your guilt is inside your head
One word for you
One word by me
A clear design on my liberty
When your deed was done
Who would believe in me
How do I move on like everyone
The boy was such a trusting fool
Trusting your sick and jealous heart
I'll have to make some changes
How will I, my life to chart
Root myself to the ground
Capitalize on this misfortune
Two words can bring me round
“YOU'RE GONE”
One road leads to loneliness
It's always the same
One road leads to happiness
It's calling my name
You misused my love and trust
Mental pain, from selfish abuse
You destroyed a happy childhood
My trust and love you misused
Word to the wise - Well you got what's coming
Six words - Six words can bring me round
“YOU'RE DEAD AND GONE, GOOD RIDDANCE!”
