A Thousand Real Goodbyes by Melodie Yvonne Ramey
No one else can stay here
There’ll be no more friends
I hate being this lonely
But I’m toeing my wit’s end
It’s not just paranoia
That got me where I am
It’s a thousand fake I love yous
That just stopped where they began
It’s a thousand fake I love yous
A thousand real goodbyes
It’s a thousand sighs of apathy
A thousand tears I cried
It’s a thousand words you said to me
That made a thousand lies
It’s a thousand fake I love yous
And a thousand real goodbyes
There’ll be no more light here
To guide you where to go
There’s no more open door for you
To shield you from the cold
And there’ll be no more heartache
From me this time around
‘Cause my heads done being in the clouds
My feet are on the ground
It’s a thousand fake I love yous
A thousand real goodbyes
It’s a thousand sighs of apathy
A thousand tears I cried
It’s a thousand words you said to me
That made the thousand lies
It’s a thousand fake I love yous
And my final real goodbye
