Analysis of Say goodbye, Sad One
Say “goodbye,” sad one.
After all, goodbyes are not that sad.
Like forgiving, going through the emotions, releases all the bad.
Believe it, the dearly departed would not want you to suffer this way.
The loss of their presence was price enough to pay.
Say “goodbye.” say “I forgive you,” say "I love you," and call it a day.
