Moving On – Written Saturday 28th July 2001 (Aged 26)

Moving On

there always has to be that moment
there has to be a final goodbye
one that is more than words
and one that goes down deep inside
perhaps i was unfair,
perhaps i was too quick to anger
but it is because i still care
but you,
you only have yourself to blame
i know you wanted me to suffer
and you wanted me to be lame
and to be truthful,
for so long i was
and my, how those days went on
but now, they are gone
there always has to be that moment
there has to be a final goodbye
there were memories in my mind
and tears in my inner eyes
it went deep down inside
but to you, i could never really lie
and yes, i still really care
but there has to be a final goodbye
