I Say

You say you never loved me.

You laugh in my shocked face.

You wasted your years with me.

I'm easy to replace.



You say it was an effort

To pretend for so long.

You sneer and point right at me.

I am weak; you are strong.



You say I am so ugly,

So stupid, now forlorn;

I never was a turn-on.

My feeling you do scorn.



You say our life was boring,

And that it's been sheer hell,

And now that you are leaving

Your life will turn out well.



You say I'm so terrible

So unloved and unliked

That no one else would want me.

You've got me truly psyched.



You say I'm lousy at love.

As if you would not know

That if that's the way it is

Then you have made it so.



I say, o great god, goodbye.

Au revoir and adieu.

Go and fare better elsewhere.

I know I'm going to.
