I don't need you
I don’t need you anymore;
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 The holes you left, I’ve filled
 
  
 
 With fantastic fabrications
 
  
 
 of memories happier than
 
  
 
 any I made with you.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 I don’t miss your drama
 
  
 
 Or the way that you treated me.
 
  
 
 And I sure as hell don’t miss
 
  
 
 Feeling like everything was my fault.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 I don’t miss the way you made me
 
  
 
 worry about what I said or how I said it,
 
  
 
 or the fact that I censored myself
 
  
 
 just to try and please you.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 I don’t miss the smiles that warmed
 
  
 
 Up my day, because I don’t miss the
 
  
 
 frowns you traded me them for.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 I don’t need to feel like I’m not good enough,
 
  
 
 Or that I haven’t tried hard enough to do something.
 
  
 
 I don’t need a leash or an owner to keep me under thumb,
 
  
 
 And I don’t need someone who wants everything for free.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 I feel no more pain or mood swings.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 Life is now constant, Without your waves to rock my boat.
 
  
 
 What highs, but what lows. I don’t need them.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 You were my greatest nightmare and my
 
  
 
 Ultimate desire; a drug of the highest degree.
 
  
 
 But I broke my addiction and my withdrawal is over.
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 I don’t need you anymore.
