He hurt you, now you realize you don't need him
You’ve said it before,
Now there’s the door,
This time it’s me
Showing you the way out.

It used to be,
You laughing at me,
Now it’s my turn,
To turn you inside out.

Everybody said
We were never meant to be,
Only now I see,
They knew better than me…

All those empty promises,
And all those smooth lies,
Now it’s time I break away,
It’s time I realize…

I can make it,
On my own,
I don’t need you,
I will not be broken…
I won’t be hurt,
I won’t be cast aside,
Now you’ll feel
Exactly, how I felt inside.

You used to say,
My hair was too long,
But when I cut it,
Then it was too short.

You seemed to like,
Seeing me cry…
Now its time
To pay back every tear that dried.

Everybody said,
What we had was wrong.
If only I had listened,
This wouldn’t have gone on so long.

I can make it,
On my own,
I don’t need you,
I will not be broken.
I will not be hurt,
I won’t be cast aside,
Now you’ll feel,
Exactly how I felt inside.

Don’t even try,
Nothing can make me change my mind.
It’s taken me so long
To finally realize.
You were the only one
Who didn’t believe in me.
Read my lips now,
I’ll give you something to believe in.

I don’t need you….
