Chapter 1: Prologue
You're a very selfish person, do you know that?
Since I was young, you always were. Crying of your own consent, making me can't help but choose you,
Coming and go as you wish, always leaving me waiting,
Treating me like your own brother, like something so precious, not knowing what I thought,
(Even though you didn't have to care about 'me')
After my independence, you always wallowed in pain, always, always lamenting.
You didn't care what 'I' thought.
(Did you know your selfishness even affected Canada? Affected 'him'?
He didn't gain independence sooner because of you! And yet when he did, you seemed to almost congratulate him.)
And you kept being selfish. Kept acting on your own.
You'd scorn me, remind me over and over again of what I've done. You never thought about what I felt.
(And I never thought of what you felt)
Even to this day, you kept being selfish. Showing whatever emotion you felt of your own consent.
(Never knowing how my heart reacted whenever you were close, whenever you showed me more, whenever you smiled)
And you kept saying whatever you wanted...
(Making me go crazy)
And now, you've done it again. You've been selfish again.
You left. Without saying a word to anyone.
(To me)
You left, without caring what anyone thought.
(What I thought)
We were told of this fact by cold words, from people that didn't care what 'we' thought.
(Where were you?
Why did you go?)
And you left, saying those words to me. Those words that I never expected to hear.
(Those words that shook my heart.)
And then you left
(Without hearing the reply)
You're selfish. Always was, always will be. You're a shameless old man, an dishonest, hopeless, self-deprecating guy.
And you're the worst. And you were wrong.
(And I was wrong, too. But it doesn't matter anymore)
Despite what you had said, you still left.
(Again. You left me behind, like when I was young, still waiting for you to come back)
But you'll never come back. You're gone.
You're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone you're gone
You're gone.
