Who will be your pretty little enemy?
When I’m gone, your world will prove empty
I promise, you will always remember me
—Deranged by Coheed and Cambria
My goodbye
Is my suicide note
Outline framed in your eyes
These words will linger on tongue
Until they spill forth a scene, a scenario
You and me
Are the main players, and we had to learn
When to take a bow at the right time
When time combined and seconds were in excess
Clattering at our feet are these fights
Until they gather forth a moment, a memento
You and me
Are the main collection, and we had to learn
To shine in each other’s smile and our names
Shimmered on the surface, but deep down
Sinking is this love, drowning with our anger
Until they gasp forth a division, a creation
You and me
Are the main dancers, and we had to learn
To waltz through this timeline
When the tears got caught on the musical notes
Seeping along abandoned fingers
Until they reach forth for a role, a rule
You and me
Are the main villain and hero, and we had to learn
The best escape route to avoid our shadows
Leap over the growing resentment, and we fly
Farther and farther away on bitterness wings
Until they fall forth into a story, a memory
You and me
Neatly folded and pressed, I will lay it on the pillow
For me this is my freedom, and the villain exits stage right
You the hero will be left alone pondering the dialogue, waiting to bow
I know you will always love me, and someday
You will learn there is more to you than my memory
