Every night I went to bed
Tears would sting my cheeks
I used to think you wouldn’t hurt me
No matter what happened
But I was wrong as usual
But now I’m happier
Happier without you around
I got someone who cares about me
He doesn’t use me like you did
He doesn’t cheat on me with other girls,
he doesn’t lie to me when I ask him if something’s wrong
He doesn’t lay a hand on me like you’ve done
so many times before
He is there when I need him and when I don’t unlike
you who ran away at the slightest sign of trouble like a
scared little girl
You were everything to me but now
you won’t lay another hand on me
since you are only an awful memory
