50 Words or Less

Trying to think of how I'll say goodbye
God don't let me cry
I lost the biggest contest of my life
I couldn't stand the lies
I called it love
You called it fun
Respect I never won
Back when the hurting first begun
Should've kept my pride and run
Now I don't want your shoulder to rely on
But if I were put to the test
Then I could write
All the good times you've gave me
In fifty words or less
I tried to play it by your rules
I was a fool
To lose the game means losing you
Looks like I lose
Now I don't want your shoulder to cry on
Crying won't get it off my chest
And I could write
All the good times you've gave me
In fifty words or less
I could write
All the good times you've gave me
In fifty words or less
