lyrics

To whom it may concern:
It’s with a heavy heart I write to you in two weeks’ time, I’ll happily depart.
Have your retaliation, and eat my resignation.
Please don’t try to back track.
Wanna talk it out? You’ve got so much in store for me I knew nothing about?
Well, your empty platitudes of thanks and future hopes all taste so fake.
Don’t wanna talk about a “growth plan”, want you to talk to me like a man.

Sick and tired of watching you step on everyone you’re threatened by for all you lack.
My pension won’t cover the cost of all the life I lost and I won’t get

It’s overdue.
And if we’re being fair, you cooked up all this tension - served it up with your despair.
For seven years I’ve been by your side to give you cover while you hide.
I’m through feeding your ego! It’s high time you watch me go.
It makes me sick
All you take credit for my time, my love, my body, blood, has bought and paid for.
You sat in comfort while I sweat. You turned your back on the hand that fed
And what you call compensation is insulting exploitation.

Sick and tired of watching you step on everyone you’re threatened by for all you lack.
My pension won’t cover the cost of all the life I lost and I won’t get back.

When I’m gone (when I’m gone)
When I’m gone (when I’m gone)
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone (you’ll miss me, you’ll miss me)
When I’m gone (when I’m gone)
When I’m gone (when I’m gone)
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone (you’ll miss me, you’ll miss me)

You’ll miss me, you’ll miss me
You’ll miss me, you’ll miss me when I’m gone

Sick and tired of watching you step on everyone you’re threatened by for all you lack.
My pension won’t cover the cost of all the life I lost and I won’t get back.
I can tell you’re shaking in your boots - you’re the one set up to lose if this goes off track.
To whom it may concern: I’m gone. This is goodbye, so long.
And I won’t look back.
