Goodbye

I stand outside this house
In the wind and the cold
I see within you sitting in the warmth
You and the rest
But I turn from this and depart
For I no longer have a desire to be numbered with you.

Who were we?
We were something?
We were exclusive.
We were the talk of the town!

Now I am the enemy
Because I left you

You the club are still together
And I stand in the cold looking in
But I would rather be an outsider
For what we did was cruel

And now I am the victim of your cruelty
It is better this way
For I have no desire to come back in.

You can have your club and your exclusivity
I have chosen to leave you

I would rather be left alone
But yet you still choose to invite me back in
My mind is made up
Leave me be

Because it seems you want something that you cannot have
My freedom, of which you cannot have nor take

I'm leaving,
Goodbyes are permanent
So... Goodbye
