It has often been said since the dawn of man

That goodbyes are bittersweet

The hurt that comes from deep within

Means that your ties made you complete

But now that the moment has finally come

And you depart upon the breeze

I can’t help but feel in my heart

A certain sense of ease

I never thought that you would leave

And leave me all alone

Still now my mind it whispers to me

You’re better off on your own

For though you promised to be by my side

Through sun, through snow, through rain

You left me behind and you told me lies

Yet your words still kept me chained

False promises of love, of change

I foolishly believed

But your strangling lies, they left with you

And I can finally breath

I always feared the loneliness

That would consume me if you left

It came, then left just as you had

It followed in your steps

So here I sit, alone, unloved

But now i feel complete

I won’t believe such lies again

Not all goodbyes are bittersweet
