Wake-Up Call (For Good Goodbye)
You punched me, in the gut so hard,
with all your twisted, little shards!
I couldn't speak! I was so meek!
Your words felt like a shock to me!
You'd be so nice...but then you'd slice!
Pretend to give me, some advice!
I didn't need, especially,
your apathetic sympathy!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
This is your wake-up call!
My wake-up call!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hear this! Your wake-up call!
My wake-up call!
I gave you years...and cried my tears!
Excused you for, your wicked jeers!
I loved you so, although I know,
you acted like, I was below!
I dreamed, my dreams! You schemed, your schemes!
You blamed me for, such simple things!
A heavy load! A one-way show!
There was no shiny afterglow!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
This is your wake-up call!
My wake-up call!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hear this! Your wake-up call!
My wake-up call!
You have some kind of hierarchy,
disordered personality!
You'd always say, "What do you mean?"
with no accountability!
I gave you grace...and hoped for change!
You'd act as if...I was so strange!
I guess, I was! I guess, I was...
because I loved you, just because!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
This is your wake-up call!
My wake-up call!
Hello! Goodbye! Hello! Goodbye!
Hello! Goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye!
Hear this, this is goodbye!
For good, goodbye! For good, goodbye!
