A bad dream like sickness in my gut
Muscle memory of the road we're taking
Fewer words, a lighter hug
It's my turn to do the breaking
We say
Goodbye all time
What's one more in a long line
You don't
Make a speech
I don't cry
I start to wonder why
Our last night before you leave again
I cry while you listen to a podcast
Is this what Camp Cope meant
About lying in bed, back to back
We say
Goodbye all time
What's one more in a long line
I don't
Make a speech
You don't cry
I know why
Now you don't have to wait for me
To do everything too slowly
And I won't have to wait in vain
For one damn thank you or I'm sorry
Nothing's ever your fault is it
This one's mine, I'll take the credit
We'll say
Goodbye one last time
Standing here, the end of the line
This song
Is my speech you still won't cry
