Goodbye

It's funny how songs relate to so many people on so many levels. You can take any set of lyrics and make them about your life or situation. What's really crazy is when the songs that mean so much to you have the same impact on other people, but can be about something totally different from what you were thinking. Recently, I haven't wanted to talk to people about my situation. Most of the people who are near me right now are opinionated and I don't want their thoughts affecting mine. I want to do things for myself, make my own choices. When you're with somebody for so long, whether it's a friend or something more, you tend to do things for them because you want to make them happy. But when you sacrifice too much of yourself, it becomes a problem. So for now, I'm doing a lot of introspection, trying to figure out what it is that makes me happy. Right now, I'm not sure what that is, but I need to figure it out on my own.

How do you love someone
That hurts you oh so bad
With intentions good
Was all he ever had

But how do I let go when I've
Loved him for so long and I've
Given him all that I could
Maybe love is a hopeless crime
Giving up what seems your lifetime
What went wrong with something once so good

How do you find the words to say
To say goodbye
If your heart don't have the heart to say
To say goodbye

I know now I was naïve
Never knew where this would lead
And I'm not trying to take away
From the good man that he is

But how do I let go when I've
Loved him for so long and I've
Given him all that I could
Was it something wrong that we did
Because others infiltrated
What went wrong with something once so good

How do you find the words to say
To say goodbye
If your heart don't have the heart to say
To say goodbye

Is this the end are you sure
How should you know when you've never been here before
It's so hard to just let go
When this is the one and only love I've ever known

So how do you find the words to say
To say goodbye
If your heart don't have the heart to say
To say goodbye
