A Fond Farewell

My mother once told me

The thicker your skin

The better off you'll be when this world brings you down

Well it's trying to control me

And leave me without hope

In the past I've been burned

But I've lived and I've learnedBeneath the shelter of the pouring rain

In the absence of this fear and pain

I will finally bid my ball and chain

A fond farewellOn the road that leads me to my place

I will rid my heart of past disgrace

I will finally bid this sluggish pace

A fond farewellWhen I heard their reservations

When I read their bitter words

I shined a light upon their wisdom no matter how absurd

And it broke my heard to pieces

And I questioned my own beliefs

My dignity was gone

But it's time to move on[Chorus]Say goodbye to feeling sorry for myself

To begging others for far too much help

This is my hand, these are the cards that I've been dealt

Only I can make these changes, nobody else

Say goodbye to those sleepless nights

Those corridors with no end in sight

A driven man with these words I write

I'm making peace with my soul tonight[Chorus]
