Goodbye to you

You took me by your side
Once I knew your name
And said "Hi
Let's play a game"

Oh, a game we did play
You took it upon yourself to hurt me more than twice
And I just let it happen
Even though I knew it wasn't nice

You took me by your side
And insulted me at your leasure
I didn't say I enjoyed it
I wouldn't call it pleasure

So, I continued to let all this happen
Even though I knew, deep inside, it was wrong
But I couldn't let you go
I wasn't that strong

One day, I called you
And you didn't answer the phone
That's when I knew
I was back to being alone

Of course, I tried you by a friends
And you made me cry, once again
I knew this ended our relationship
I knew it had ended, then

Oh, we did play a game
You were the winner, of course
I didn't bother telling you how I truly felt
Because you'd just make me hoarse

You wouldn't listen to me at all
You thought I was just making stuff up all the time
And that wasn't at all true
About you, I could - maybe - make up a rhyme

But, anyways, back to the topic at hand
You, I couldn't stand at all
I don't know why I continued to play this game with you
Because you made me feel so small

So, as the title says
I really would like to, internally, wish you goodbye
It isn't good for me
To continue on giving you space in my mind without you paying any rent, so goodbye, I say with a heavy sigh
