Farewell

[Intro: Elusive]

Yeah..

Usually, my music is about me..

And the way I see things..

But for this next song..

I'm gonna be telling your story..

From your point of view..

Let's see how close I am..

Uh..



[Verse 1: Elusive]

If I was full of love, would you love me?

All I wanted was, someone to hug me

I couldn't see the beauty, looking in the mirror

All I hear is all the other kids telling me I'm dumb and ugly

I'm not worthy, cause every time I ever fell for someone else

It seems like it was just to hurt me

I got what I deserved, and I can only blame myself for

Putting trust in people, when they all desert me

But my life might be a short ride

So I've gotta be strong, and let the doubt hide

Life's an outfit, that I ain't fitting in

Cause the only time, I belong is when I'm on the outside

And now I wake up to a bad dream

See, when I found myself - I lost my self-esteem

I'm depressed, but I guess you must be deaf

You don't even seem to hear a single thing, when I try and scream..



[Hook: Faith Williams]

I wanted to love you..

But you wouldn't love me, for me..

All that leaves..

Is to say farewell..

I didn't want to say goodbye to you..

But you didn't give me a chance, to be true..

To myself..

All that's left, is farewell..



[Verse 2: Elusive]

Afraid of love, but I seek connection

Looking at myself, I see an imperfection

What if it's misdirection? I got nowhere left to go

So I pushed away the people tryna show affection

The wrong one's I put trust in

Life passes by, but I guess I'm still adjusting

At the start I couldn't deal, I was crushed

But if my heart is made of steel, why do I feel like it's rusting

If I'm worthless, why should I be proud?

Screaming loud, cause I can only do what I'm allowed

I never had a handout, so I hold my hand out

Hoping it might help me stand out, from the crowd

Cause people treat me like I'm made of glass

About to break, and you don't see me when I'm walking past

Just let my voice be heard, is that too much to ask?

I didn't want the drama, so here I hide behind a mask..



[Hook]



[Bridge: Elusive / Faith Williams]

All I really wanted, was someone I could hold..

So I don't feel alone, when night falls and it's cold..

Look into my soul, and tell me what you see..

I tried to open up, but I am only me..



[Verse 3: Elusive]

In my mind, it's like a whirlwind

I'd been hurt so many times, I could near end

My life, but then I met a rapper who would open my eyes

And it was nice, but of course, he just lost a girlfriend

Together, it was only comfort we found

If you ever needed me, I would always be round

But I had it all backwards, cause the truth is

To you, I felt more like, I was just another rebound

And still you never wanted sex

I guess at least I had that in common, with your ex

Then I saw my life cave in, and though I needed saving

I don't need your superhero complex

Reading back messages you once sent

And still now, I am not sure, what it all meant

Like how could I rely on somebody

Who just keeps threatening to leave me at any moment..



[Hook]



[Outro: Elusive]

Yeah..

So I guess that's it..

You know I never meant to hurt you though..

I just wanted you to know, that I understand..

Cause to me, you really are amazing..

And I just felt, your side of the story had to be told..

Before I'm gone..
