As midnight strikes I'm sure
Its a one way ticket out your door
And I have no second thoughts or regrets
Just a list of things that I'd like to forgetI finally stored up enough courage to say
That I no longer wanted to be treated this way
After years of hoping that my dreams would come true
Thinking that you will realize I'm crazy in love with youI swallowed your spit, now there is a lump in my throat
I know how to use words like despise and hate and loathe
I've found enough pep in my step to leave
Enough air in my chest to finally breatheOne foot in one foot out thinking of what I'll miss
A deceptive touch, a venomous kiss
Words that creep and pierce to the core
And I smile at the thought of those things being no moreMy journey has just begun
You think I've lost but I've won
Now I go I live the real me
Leaving you with the image of the person you've always wanted me to beI hope for you all the best my dear
Prosperous life without me being there
You finally had your wish now your free
Let me know how you like life without me
