Forever exactly is a long time to wait
Too long for my heart, too long for my fate
Forever exactly is not enough time
To feed all in poverty and end all the crime
Forever exactly is much much too long
To read the same book or sing the same song..

My life is too short for you to play me this way
I don't want to wait around for you in every coming day
My life is too long to listen to you say
That I'm just plain useless in every single way
My life is too short to listen to you on the phone
Because either way it goes, I'm always left alone..

I'm ready now to go out and have fun
And laugh and chat with friends until the day is done
I'm not ready now for anger and all the hate it brings
Can't I just avoid evil and all the painful things
I'm ready now to be happy, I think the time has come
I don't ever want to hear you use love in the same sentence
                                                ... as dumb.

Goodbye and good riddance
