SAY GOODNIGHT, GRACIE

I came into fandom sixteen years ago as a bored, lonely stay-at-home mom, and while, truthfully, I leave in much the same way so much has happened over the years that brought me such unparalleled joy and laughter. I thank every one of you who contributed to that. Yet I've also had my heart broken so painfully that I just can't be here right now - it's too painful. It's hard for me to step back and take a break - truthfully, I don't know how long it will last or if I'll even end up coming back at all. I hope I will, because I need a place to talk and I need friends to connect with. I'm still very isolated. There are so many things I have to do with my life - I can't accept that this is the end. The song is about regret - we all have at least a few regrets, don't we? <3

Lyrics: Million Years Ago by Adele

I only wanted to have fun
Learning to fly learning to run
I let my heart decide the way
When I was young
Deep down I must have always known
That this would be inevitable
To earn my stripes I'd have to pay
And bare my soul

I know I'm not the only one
Who regrets the things they've done
Sometimes I just feel it's only me
Who can't stand the reflection that they see
I wish I could live a little more
Look up to the sky not just the floor
I feel like my life is flashing by
And all I can do is watch and cry
I miss the air I miss my friends
I miss my mother I miss it when
Life was a party to be thrown
But that was a million years ago

When I walk around all of the streets
Where I grew up and found my feet
They can't look me in the eye
It's like they're scared of me
I try to think of things to say
Like a joke or a memory
But they don't recognise me now
In the light of day

I know I'm not the only one
Who regrets the things they've done
Sometimes I just feel it's only me
Who never became who they thought they'd be
I wish I could live a little more
Look up to the sky not just the floor
I feel like my life is flashing by
And all I can do is watch and cry
I miss the air I miss my friends
I miss my mother I miss it when
Life was a party to be thrown
But that was a million years ago
A million years ago ...

So ... Goodnight.
