Lyrics - Callin'

Another set of lyrics, with which I'm mostly happy.

I see you standing outside my door,
I see you soften, that same old smile,
My heart is racing, what are you looking for?
But I remember all the lies I've heard,
My silence speaks louder than any words,
Yeah it's been a while,
And I slam the door.

I heard you callin' from the other side,
I won’t cry, still got my pride,
Stirred up memories that cut like knives,
The day you walked out my life,
When you broke me with your lies.

Now I’m sitting here, phone in hand,
Why I press play, I don’t understand,
Hearing echoes of the words you've sent,
Hot tears falling, rage unspent.

I know it's over, I should put the phone away,
I’ll hafta walk away, wanna keep control,
To take you back would be a cruel mistake,
Wounds won’t heal, just ‘cause you tell them to,
Gotta hold on tight, don’t wanna break.
I’ll still miss you every single day.

I heard you calling from the other side,
And I'm not crying, still got my pride,
You’re begging for forgiveness,
But you're outta time,
All your words won't change my mind,
I don't need you by my side.

Yeah I’m stronger now, I found my way.
No more living for yesterday,
You thought I’d crumble, thought I’d fall apart,
But day by day, I fixed my heart,
Rising higher with ev’ry single breath,
Climbing from the ashes that you left.

I heard you calling from the other side,
And I won’t cry, I’ve got my pride,
You’re begging for forgiveness,
But you’re outta time,
All your words won’t change my mind,
I don’t need you by my side.

I've heard you callin' from the other side,
And I'm not cryin', I've got my pride,
I've moved on, broken free,
No more chains, I’ve found the key,
I heard you callin', and I closed that door,
You're not wanted here anymore.
