While you wait

I'm not holding my breath

You walked out the door

Maybe you should stay gone

It hurt too much when you said

I'm leaving and you don't have to wait

I listened as you tore my heart

With every word you spoke

You brought me to tears

Ripped my heart into a million little pieces

I cannot capture with words what you did

But I let you believe that I'd wait

You said you'd go to her

I didn't hold back, you didn't want to be here

I let you leave, I watched you walk out

You took a part of me

I'm not asking for anything

I just wish you'd stay gone

Don't ever come back

Even if you do find your way back

I won't be holding out a candle for you

You lost it all when you left

I'm not giving you another minute to live

Rent-free in my head

I want to be free

Held on for too long

I'm letting you go

Giving this up

You're gone, that's my reality

I'm alone, that's my truth
