I don’t want you anymore Your hair has greyed Your body is rounder Your youth has run out I don’t want you anymore You don’t help me You are lazy, ungrateful You are preoccupied I don’t want you anymore You’re no partner to me You’re a pet to take care of You’re a burden I don’t want you anymore I did for so long I can’t remember why I know why I stopped I don’t want you anymore Like you, I have other priorities Like you can’t be bothered Like you, who let go first I don’t want you anymore I know you don’t care I know you don’t notice I know you will be fine I don’t want you anymore So don’t come back So don’t wait around So don’t you dare touch me I don’t want you anymore And I tell myself again And again and again And I almost believe it
