Say Goodbye
Embracing Change: Transformative Journey in Tammy Cochran's 'Say Goodbye'
Lyrics
It's time to step outside these walls I call my life
Feeling the need to break free from the confines of my current life.
And take a long, hard look at who I am.
Reflecting deeply on my identity and self-awareness.
I've never been one to fly; never known how or why.
Expressing a history of not taking risks or exploring new possibilities.
But, tonight, it's all wearing thin.
Feeling a sense of weariness with the current state of affairs.
I've caught glimpses of who I want to be,
Having glimpses of the person I aspire to become.
And the only thing standing in my way is me.
Recognizing that my own self is the primary obstacle to my growth.
Say goodbye to the girl you used to know.
Expressing a farewell to the previous version of myself.
Say hello to the woman you'll never know.
Welcoming a new and transformed self that others may not understand.
Guess I could blame myself for being something else,
Taking responsibility for not being true to myself and avoiding necessary actions.
And being too afraid to make my stand.
Acknowledging fear as a hindrance to taking a stand or asserting my true self.
But, I've been carved out and held down in self-created chains.
Describing the impact of self-imposed limitations and constraints.
So, please let go as I close the door and walk away.
Seeking release from self-imposed restrictions by closing a metaphorical door.
Say goodbye to the girl you used to know.
Reiterating the farewell to the old version of oneself.
Say hello to the woman you'll never know.
Embracing the introduction of a new, transformed identity.
Ahhhh.
An emotive expression, possibly signifying a transition or realization.
Say goodbye to the girl you used to know.
Repeating the symbolic goodbye to the past self.
Say hello to the woman you'll never know.
Reiterating the embrace of a new, unfamiliar self.
To the woman you'll never know.
Confirming the permanence of the transformation to an unknown self.
