“Goodbye Forever”
(Written By: Alana Cheng)

Goodbye forever / To the evening sky of negative voices / That have been existing in my head / For quite some time / Forever in a state of living / And of being so scared / That I will never ever / Be able to change and to evolve / Into the person / That I know I am / And forever will be / But would never ever become / With enough support / From the ones that have surrounded me / With a lot of talk / About everything of which / I never wanted to hear / Of all the negative words / That have been told to me / From their mouths / To which I couldn’t deny / Right in front of those / That were telling them to me / And now I am here / At a place in my life / To say goodbye / Goodbye to the negative words / That told me I wouldn’t be able to reach the stars / Of which I would never / Be able to say goodbye to the scars / That were and forever will be inflicted upon me / Of such betrayal / And of such a life I have once lived / Without any freedom of any sort / To grow and evolve as a person / Who learns from my own mistakes / And I refuse / To let all of the things in my past / To weigh me down / And to hold me to the ground / To the point / Where I can no longer breathe / ‘Cause I’ve got enough faith in myself / To make it out alive / As I am someone / Who has had the strength / To know that I will be okay / And that not only would I be alright / But that I can make it on my own / And to learn how to grow and evolve / Into the person that I was / Always meant to become / And to grow up as / For there is nothing to worry about / In the part of growing up / With so much to learn along the way / ‘Cause along the way / I have grown to learn from all of my mistakes / And to live each day right now / With a real smile / That I could never erase / The kind that exists in my heart / Forever and ever / As I am now saying goodbye forever / To all of the things that once plagued me / Of becoming who I’ve always been / The kind of person / That was meant to grow and evolve into a butterfly / That has been sheltered / From the outside world / But I know so much / As to knowing that with enough faith / And the drive to live my life / On a free and completely harmonious note / That I will be just fine / No matter what anyone says / So I will say goodbye / To all of my troubles / That are now long and so far behind me / So goodbye to the past of regrets / And of heartache of emotional suffocation / Goodbye, goodbye / Oh, my darling / To the past of it all / Goodbye forever.
