I know to whom to say "I love you".

I have ways to show you that I care.

But there are those out there whose emotions aren't readily shared.

I am not going to sit here and wait for you to be as straight with me as I am with you.

By now, you all should know better, but if you don't want to let your mind open, 

then it is time for us to find separate ways to go.

We've lived so long together, but it's long past time to get back to someplace I can call "my World".

If you're going to dive into your greatest frustrations and lie to me,

in the name of "cleaning house", I will not hesitate to leave YOUR World.

Anytime you want to throw it all away and dispose of all things "us", just say the words & I'll go.

Because you know what?  I know better than to take beatings anymore.  I can pack it up and GO!

The Future might show we're still united.  

It may show we are divided.

All I know is that we have fought for the last time.

There is nothing you can say that will not prevent us moving apart.

I see my World going on without you, either way it goes down.

I have other ways than you to light up my darkness.

I know who is willing to extend a hand of kinship.

I hope you find some way to explain your actions to those who don't understand.

Why should I stick around and give you the chance to convince me everyone sees me as the prick?

Guess what?  I know how they actually feel about me, so be convoluted on your own.

Whether or not you regret your decisions someday, and the Truth sets you free:

memories of what has passed between us will tell you that you've mistreated me.

If you want to make amends with me at some point and reunite us all,

all you will have to do is admit to yourself first what you need to express to me.

If you cannot do that before it's too late for us all, the only thing you will ever remember hearing

is the sound of my voice calling out "We are finished here, so stay away from me."

There's nothing else to say.  I don't want to fight anymore.  

If this never gets better; as soon as the check is in my hand,

I'll know that it is time for me to go...
