Goodbye happened when Ryan wasn't being very productive, prompting Jalen to suggest kicking him out of the band. So, Louis decided to put him to work by completing an old demo and handing it off to him. Eventually it built into a song about not saying goodbye.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Never a good time for a goodbye
And when it happens you can't help but cry
Menacing as it seems
We're two people
With different dreams
Not letting go for the better things
In the horizon as I see
I guess it's up to me
To sever this bond
And make it never seen
I'm just a defendant
That you can rely on in matter of seconds
Farewell this is simply a confession
Emotional detachment
Turns to a eternal obsession

[Chorus]
There's never a time for goodbyes
Can't let you go
Can't lose this anymore
Just wish the time would go by
Cause now you know
Can't go through this anymore

[Verse 2]
Goodbye
Seven letters that'll make any man cry
Causing emotional distress
Just to hear his regrets
Pondering the next step just to impress
It's all out of pain
You're leaving and its not the same
Here comes rain
Piercing each and every vain
The truth will remain
But you'll engineer
A different kind of gear
Just to assure you aren't here
That's mainly fear
And pressure from peers
That lure to keep you away
While I'm suggesting you stay

[Chorus]
There's never a time for goodbyes
Can't let you go
Can't lose this anymore
Just wish the time would go by
Cause now you know
Can't go through this anymore
