[Verse 1: Rustage]
All these promises of love can leave you broken, hear the snapping bones
Discordant chords run parallel to melodies and happy tones
Maybe I was scared of what it would be like to stand alone
The crimes are not my doing, but the sins are ones I can atone
Love and hate, they make perfect partners
Unafraid to lay claims to martyrs
Suffocate, I won't wait for answers
Cut away through the pain, katanas
Darkness, I'm causing carnage
I've been blind to the grief I harness
Madе it mine, I gon' keep my chances
Maki time, makе them see like glasses
Leaving my memories tarnished, I wield a devil incarnate, wish I had asked it
When you've been living through trauma, it's often the need to let go that will hit you the hardest
I've got a guard that I take for granted, bound to the brush that will paint my target
Dragged through the mud, I gon' live through hardship, all the regrets for the life of the girl that departed

[Pre-Chorus: HalaCG]
I hate that I became something you couldn't like
Until the end I was the curse that hurt the people closest

[Chorus: HalaCG]
Never meant to be a burden
Just wanted to protect you
Special grade, a special person
And I know that it affects you
All the pressure, oh, it scares you
I know separate we'd be better
Won't cry, yeah
So it's okay to say goodbye
[Verse 2: Rustage]
Goodbye
I hope that you had a good life
I know the processes took time
Know I did nothing and stood by
I was denying the fact that you could die
If anything wish they had took mine
I misunderstood why
Thank you for loving me, you were my good side
Good side, special grade and special person
Cut me open like a surgeon, poison venom like a serpent
I be pulling back the curtains, trading powers like a merchant
You be acting like a servant, our future is something we work to determine
My mindset is certain
I'm sick of the baggage and leaving you hurtin'
I've not been observant, like Inumaki, I be speaking it wordless
Through my actions I make peace with my burdens
I got to push down my fears, but I'm nervous
Had to let go, but I know I deserve this
Rikka, I'm sorry, did you a disservice
Thank you, sending you back to the surface

[Chorus: HalaCG]
Never meant to be a burden
Just wanted to protect you
Special grade, a special person
And I know that it affects you
All the pressure, oh, it scares you
I know separate we'd be better
Won't cry, yeah
So it's okay to say goodbye
[Bridge: Rustage]
When I saw the blood pooling at my feet, I know I was weak
I know, but the pain, it wouldn't cease, I played a game of make believe
I bet away your peace, I bet away the sanctity
I bound you to a limbo, chained away to my own love and greed
I don't know what love could mean
I was being selfish and determined that you couldn't leave
You just want what's best for me, it's not your fault, I'm left to grieve
It's hard to be apart, but letting go is what will set you free

[Pre-Chorus: HalaCG]
I hate that I became something you couldn't like
Until the end I was the curse that hurt the people closest

[Chorus: HalaCG]
Never meant to be a burden
Just wanted to protect you
Special grade, a special person
And I know that it affects you
All the pressure, oh, it scares you
I know separate we'd be better
Won't cry, yeah
So it's okay to say goodbye
