Say goodbye, pick up your valise and go -
No point prolonging this agony.
If it is to be done, then do it now
Don't let the onus all rest on me.
I had such hopes and foolish desires -
Thought I saw 'forever' in your eyes.
The disillusionment is killing me.
I'm a naive fool I realize.
Let no one again tempt me to emerge
From my distant refuge of cold stone.
I don't seem to have a regulator-
It's best for me to exist alone
And the process has already started -
The numbing begins from inside out
The shut-down will be in the near future
With the outcome beyond any doubt.
