she opened up the door
i think she'd leave before i had the chance
to bid her a proper farewell
but i was never there for her
when she was crawling up in the bathroom corner
what a silent sound
she wished someone would hear her
wasn't her fault that she kept quiet
no one would really know
what she had secretly wanted
put my ego on a shelf
now she told me this is a proper farewell
