This Is Goodbye
Lillix Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is goodbye
You want it
This is goodbye
I let you in
Gave you my time
Called you a friend
I never knew
You covered my eyes
Clever you
I bought into your lies
And I tried to make it right but you choose not to hear
Now it's time to say goodbye I can't force you to feel
You see it you want it forget it
This is goodbye
I don't need it I mean it
The end of my line
Lost my trust
Had enough of taking what's mine
Let it go let you know
That this is goodbye
Bye bye bye bye
This is goodbye
Now I know the truth
Played me like a game
Set me up have you no shame
Now I see why you took control
You hold me back so I’d have nothing at all
And I tried to make it right but you choose not to hear
Now it's time to say goodbye I can't force you to feel
You see it you want it forget it
This is goodbye
I don't need it I mean it
The end of my line
Lost my trust
Had enough of taking what's mine
Let it go let you know
That this is goodbye
Bye bye bye bye
This is goodbye
Oh when the lights go
Oh when the flame blows out who will be there
Oh when the lights go
Who will remain close by to wipe your tears
The song "This Is Goodbye" by Lillix is a heart-wrenching break-up song where the singer is coming to terms with the end of a relationship. The song starts with the lines "You see it you want it, this is goodbye," already setting the mood for the end of the relationship. The singer then goes on to describe how the other person manipulated her and made her believe in their lies. She had trusted them wholeheartedly and gave them everything she had, but in the end, it was all for naught. She tries to make things right, but the other person won't listen, and that's when she decides to let go and bid goodbye to the relationship.
The chorus repeats the lines "You see it you want it, forget it, this is goodbye. I don't need it, I mean it, the end of my line." It's clear that the singer has had enough of being walked all over and taken advantage of. She's had enough of giving her all to the relationship and getting nothing in return. She bids a final farewell and declares that this is the end of the line for them.
The bridge of the song brings in a note of sadness as the singer wonders who'll be there for the other person when the lights go out, and they're left alone. It's a poignant moment as the person who has been wronged still thinks about the other's wellbeing, even though they're no longer together.
In all, "This Is Goodbye" by Lillix is an emotional song that portrays the pain and frustration of a failed relationship. The singer has had enough and bids her final goodbye, firm in her decision to let go and move on.
