So Happy for You

July 13, 2022

You told me you were with someone else and yet I can’t make myself leave
Punch drunk from being slammed too hard upon the ground.
I can’t get up, I can’t stand up for myself I just can’t believe

So I sit on this couch and pretend to smile, pretend to laugh that everything is okay
But it is not, I feel the rot, and inside I cry.
The people move around me and someone is talking but I can’t seem to hear what they say
I am shot full of knots and I am paralyzed

So good night! So goodbye! It’s time to turn out the lights
It’s time to say good riddance any chance of happiness tonight
Good bye! Good night! I don’t miss you one bit at all.
When I am finally alone I’ll put my fist through the wall.

You told me I was nice and important to you but it is not me you are with
Punch drunk slammed one too many times upon the ground
It is torture but I can’t make myself leave and walk away, I’m pissed.

So I sit in this room and let the world go around me though I wish that i could choose
This party keeps going on and on and doesn’t seem to end
People are talking around me and I laugh because they seem to be laughing too
I want to leave, find reprieve and get away from my friends

Turn out the lights! Say good night! It’s time to say goodbye
Life can be such a pittance after letting happiness take flight
Good night! Good bye! I’ll just look cool against this wall.
When I am finally alone I will pretend I don’t miss you at all.

She said she is finally happy and so glad that I am happy for her
Punch drunk from being hit once too many I fall hard to the ground
People help me up but I can;t stand by myself crushed that it is over

So I sit on this couch and pretend it’s all okay only it is not and I can only laugh
At this bash, I sit with the trash and I don’t know why
People keep sitting down and no one seems to leave, I wish I could get smashed
I just can’t last, or move to fast, ironic that this party is mine

She is with someone else and so it sinks in that I am the ever helpful friend
Punch drunk for her to turn to someone for her to lean upon
I know it is torture but I can’t seem to get up and make it end

So Good night! So Goodbye! It’s time to turn out the lies
I’ve run out of patience, it’s time to stop fighting the fight
So Goodbye! So good night! I’m tired of feeling small
I finally know myself and am no longer willing to take the fall

So good night! So goodbye! It’s time to turn out the lights
It’s time to say good riddance any chance of happiness tonight

So good night! [Fade]
