My Only Birthday Wish

…it’s never going to work this time.  We’re to the point of no return, and along the way the only thing we’ve learned is how to hurt each other.  I’m looking back and wondering why it took so long to realize that nothing’s changed, and never will.  All these years of standing still and still we stay, in all this pain…

So save your voice, don’t waste your breath.  Can’t you see that we’re at the end? This goodbye, it’s permanent, so wish me well and try to forget all the fights and all the ways.  We almost made it but we never did and it’s finally come to this…
