Present

As I tie the loose ends of the pieces in my heart
I tuck away my feelings it’s really time I start
As I put you in a box
and wipe away the tears
I no longer am afraid
There is no fear


I heard you were in town
Well isn’t that nice
You no longer hold my heart
You’re no longer my vice
I wanted to believe that you could still be my in life
But the moment you said you missed me
I should have asked why

I extended my hand when you needed a friend
I wanted to believe that you were a man
As I open up the package of clarity on this cold December day
I let go of the pain
It really can’t stay
This element of surprise is coming to an end
you were never my lover not even a friend

I cut away the strings that bind me to you
I let go of all the feelings associated with you
I am no longer your puppet, your dog or cockatoo
I will no longer fight
And hold on to you

These tears that I shed are my final goodbye
It's time to move on and find a nice guy
I gave you chances upon chances to change and be true
The dynamic between is over we’re through
