I never saw it going this way
Never thought that I would say
Goodbye to the other side
But here we are once again
I never wanted to break my heart
But I do it almost every time
Because I'm too afraid to talk about it
And that's a story for another time
But now it's time to say goodbye
To the person that you used to know
And be the person that you've longed to be
It's time to say goodbye
To the comfortable and time for the unordinary
Because the world is open for a reason
I know that there were great chapters
There were memories unlike any
But now it's time for us to close the book
Because we can't be who we aren't
I know that they are used to him
But he isn't who I want to be anymore
I want to be known as a free soul
Because it's time for me to get my wings
You don't want to lose your future
Because you're just stuck in the past
And I know that it'll never be that easy
But it's time for you to let it all go
It's time to say goodbye
And you've got to be strong
Even when you're at your lowest
It's time to say goodbye to him
It's time to bury the book in the backyard
It's time to look in the mirror
And see
Me
