Wasted Time

No more will I spend time crying because of you.
No more will I allow myself
To be hurt by things you do.
You have bullied and you’ve threatened.
Now, my dear, we’re through.
No more will I waste my time crying over you!

Oceans of teardrops fell from these eyes.
Through so many years I’ve heard all your lies.
You’ve broken my heart, but I’m finally wise.
There will be no more tears, only goodbyes.

So many times, you’ve broken my heart.
So many long nights I’ve fallen apart.
Well, crying time’s over. I’ve just gotten smart.
This is the day I will make a fresh start.

No more time will be spent crying because of you.
No more will there be hurtful things
To break my heart in two.
Your bullying and threatening
Can’t reach me, it is true!
I’ve wasted my last minute crying over you!
