I tried, I failed
Why
Even bother
Sometimes it's best
To
Throw the towel in
If anyone
Could
See it coming
It wouldn't be
Half as funny
My life, my time
This is my own decision
It's time I did something selfish
But my greatest regret
Is that I won't be there
To see all my new friends
Crawl out of the woodwork
Wearing their fake sympathy
And well rehearsed memories
And notice the humor and the irony as they clean up the mess I made
Notice the first to pass blame
And the nonchalance with which they wash their hands
Of the mess that they've made
A sad testament that no one cared
If anyone could see it coming, it wouldn't be half as funny
And notice the humor and the irony as they wash their hands of the mess that they made
From this vantage point
It's easy to appreciate
The humor and the irony
