This Is Goodbye

Hold back the tears, I've been here too long,
I'm just wasting time so it's time to move on.
And you can't deny I've put off my dreams,
Throw that calendar out, there's more out there for me.

So, I'm gone, out the door,
Needed you, but not any more.
Sure, it's true, I might fail,
But not the same way as if I stayed here.
This is goodbye.

Please, bite your tongue, 'cause there's nothing to say,
I've been cursing the clock, so I'm leaving today.
I've never been scared of taking the chance that you never did,
And you never will, so how could you ever understand?

This is my chance to make it,
This is my life, I won't waste it here.
