Nothing to Come Back To
You've come back
But I no longer need you
It made my heart crack
and my entire being blue
Cause you're the one who left
You were just up and gone
My world felt bereft
I felt like your pawn
But now that you decided
I was worth coming back to
Your hopes are misguided
All I have to say is fuck you
I've matured on my own
And I'm happier this way
Without you, I've grown
You longer have a say
You may have made the choice first
But now the choice is mine
I don't care what took turns for the worst
It's now my time to shine
So go back to where you went
When you decided I wasn't enough
I'll get over your senseless torment
I'm just that strong and tough
