Gone Like That

I want out of this life,
And I just want to die.
Sometimes I wonder
Why I even try.

I have nothing to live for.
No will to move on.
So don't expect to see me
Tomorrow at dawn.

Don't blame anybody.
You all did your best.
But now it is time
I was laid to rest.

Just a few more
Things Before I go.
I did this for all of us.
And I love you more than you know

Please do not cry,
Not one tear for me.
I had to get out,
And now I'm free.

No, it was nothing
Serious or bad.
But I had to get out,
With what power I had.

The will in me to survive disappeared.
And the days just went on by.
I surrendered the fight to live one day.
All I wanted was to fall down and die.

You'll see me as I used to be:
Wild and crazy, innocent me.
But fi you were to see me now,
I'm happy, full of joy, and free.

I love you more now
Than you'll ever know.
And if you love me just as much,
You'll learn to let me go.
