Right before I said goodbye,
He loved me said he couldn’t live without me,
But I needed to set myself free.

I had to leave him for my own happiness,
As I don’t deserve anything less,
He wanted me to stay & be miserable,
As I walked I watched his eyes well up so full.

But I knew I could never go back,
As I was unhinged & ready to crack,
He used to hold into me so very tight,
Squeeze me to death, fill me with fright.

He said if I went he would kill himself,
That even the dark lord has damaged mental health,
But his guilt trips wouldn’t make me stay,
So I turned my back & walked away.

I hear him calling to me in my sleep,
He begs me to come back, says he’ll forever weep,
But I now am in love with another,
Have found myself a very worthy lover.

No longer am I made to live in fear,
Every time my lover comes near,
His hands are warm & loving,
Not made for pushing or shoving.

My soul is now my own, my very own,
Into my mind unhappiness is no longer sewn,
I am the one who made the devil cry,
That was when I bid him my goodbye.

I made the devil cry,
Right before I said goodbye,
He loved me said he couldn’t live without me,
But I needed to set myself free.
