I am saying farewell to a few companions I thought
Were out there to watch my back. I thought we were tight
Ever since I can remember, they were always around
Never once did I have the courage to question them
Their masters have been pushing them down my throat
Ever since I became interested in watching TV and cartoons
They made me salivate and summon the courage to ask
my parents to purchase them.
Without them seeing, I placed them in the shopping cart

I am saying farewell to you, tasty, zesty companions!
I am saying farewell to you because you made me stop
Eating and enjoying dinners with my parents
I am saying bye bye to you because you become too cheap
You are everywhere, at gas stations, vending machines at school
It's time for you to go to the ether world, the abyss
I am saying farewell because you were not true companions
You shoved your way into my life with large marketing tricks
And very deceitful ads that pop up and pop under on the TV and computer screens
I am saying farewell because you took advantage of my innocence
You abused me. You betrayed the trust I had in you. You only cared about profits

I am saying farewell because you started distancing yourself from me first
Over the years, I gained weight. You did not care about my silent suffering
You did not care about my health. You made me tune out my parents and their advice
You stole my early years of adolescence. You cared less about my shame
I dragged my unhealthy body everywhere I went. Never did you ask me to stop indulging!
You made me believe I was part of the "in crowd," the hip set when I had you in my hands
I am saying farewell because your bright neons and sleek bottles
Are just trompe-oeil, traps that will enslave my soul. You are so fake!
I want my freedom back. I want to be free from substances that destroy my fitness.

Bye bye Soda
Bye bye Snickers
Bye bye Cheeto
Bye bye Natcho
Bye bye Cheese
Bye bye Candy

Candy and Chocolate

I must say farewell even when I remember the good times
I must say farewell even when I remember
How nice Candy was to me when I was dejected and sad
Candy, I will never stop looking at you, but I won't touch you any longer
I will continue to savor the good times. Memories will last a long time
Candy and Chocolate, you both were fantastic friends
But I must get rid of you. You did not have the courage to tell me
How addictive you can be.

Farewell to you, beautiful and sweet Candy
Farewell to you, obsessive chocolate.
We must part ways. Go your separate ways
Farewell. Farewell. Farewell.
