I release you from the promises you made I release you now, because too little and too late I release you from all the things you cannot give Sadly, that includes a friendship... That you just cannot live I believed you, when you said that you mean well And I still believe that your heart is in the "right" place I believe that you think of yourself as "more" And it breaks my heart to see just another mainstream whore It was my mistake to foolishly expect You and I could share what, it turned out, you do not have I was blinded by the ideal of strength and truth But it was really all myself projected onto you I wish you happiness for your ordinary life I wish you all the happiness with your ordinary wife You deny it now, but the kids will come And you'll be "happy" then, like any ordinary man So, I release you now from the burden of my love From the trust I put in you, and all of the above I release you now from all the promises you made For I know you cannot keep any of them
