Goodbye for the last time

I found your note in the drawer I never open

Said “Always yours,” but now the ink is broken

We were wildfire, too fast to tame

Now I don’t even whisper your name

I wore my heart like a badge you could borrow

You wore your secrets like they’d vanish tomorrow

And I danced in denial for too many nights

But love isn’t love when it don’t treat you right

I let you in, I let me down

Thought if I stayed, you’d come around

But I can’t keep holding air in my hands

Hoping it turns into a man

So I’m drawing the line in my lipstick red

Unwriting the vows I wrote in my head

I’ve said it before, behind slamming doors

But this time I mean it more than before

You don’t get another lifeline

This is goodbye for the last time

You always said I was “too much to handle”

But I was just fire, and you were the candle

Burned out before you could understand

The kind of love I had in my hands

You took my spark and made it fade

Now I’m the silence you can’t persuade

And it’s not hate, it’s something worse—

A heart that’s healed past getting hurt

So I’m drawing the line in my lipstick red

Unwriting the vows I wrote in my head

I’ve said it before, behind slamming doors

But this time I mean it more than before

You don’t get another lifeline

This is goodbye for the last time

No more pages in this worn-out book

No more second glances, no second looks

You had your chance and you closed the door

Now I don’t feel you anymore

So I’m burning the words we never said

Leaving behind what’s already dead

I’ve cried all the tears, I’ve walked through the storm

But love shouldn’t leave you feeling alone

You don’t get my heart like you did before

This is goodbye for the last time...

Darling, I can’t love you anymore
