Not Meant To Be

I know I wrote something just the other day

But apparently you weren’t looking my way

That’s no surprise and I’ve learned to deal

And I don’t need imaginary friends to prove I’m real

So pay attention and just watch close

I’m about to end my world of prose

The game I’m playing is no longer fun

And you’d never notice if I said I was done

I’d walk right out and leave you all alone

And you’d sit watching unaware I’d gone

Goodbye for now, or maybe indefinitely

I haven’t decided where I want you to be

Goodbye for now, or maybe indefinitely

You’ve obviously decided where you want me

I know I spoke to you just the other day

But apparently you didn’t hear what I had to say

That’s disappointing to say the least

And I don’t need you to define my peace

So close your eyes and belly up to the clichés

I’m about to go and ruin your day

The way you said it, I think you were lying

And you’d never notice that I was trying

I’d walk right out and leave you all alone

And you’d sit watching unaware I’d gone

Goodbye for now, or maybe indefinitely

I haven’t decided where I want you to be

Goodbye for now, or maybe indefinitely

You’ve obviously decided where you want me

I know you probably don’t understand

But apparently you can’t see my hand

That’s outstretched for you trying to pull you in

And I don’t think you realize I’m laughing within

So fire blind and I hope you hit them

I’m sorry to say I won’t be going down with them

The way you act, they’d think I was crazy

And your love could never be anything but lazy

I’d walk right out and leave you all alone

And you’d sit watching unaware I’d gone

Goodbye for now, or maybe indefinitely

I haven’t decided where I want you to be

Goodbye for now, or maybe indefinitely

You’ve obviously decided where you want me

I know that this was never meant to be

But apparently you thought we ought to see

That’s sweet of you, but let’s be serious

And I don’t think that either of us will miss

So here’s to you, the first I decide to quit

I’m tired of trying, and don’t think it’s worth it

The way you stared at my inner being

And one day maybe I’ll miss your feeling

I’d walk right out and leave you all alone

And you’d sit wishing that I’d never gone

Goodbye and let the curtains fall

And I don’t believe I’ll ever call

Goodbye and try to truly believe

That we were never meant to be
