I may not show it
That does not mean that I don’t care
You can’t treat me like I don’t mean anything
I have more of a soul than you will ever have
Even though it is stained with the tears
Of one thousand and one nights
But I have finally realized
That it doesn’t matter what you say
It doesn’t matter what you do
Because you don’t matter
You are just one out of billions
You will no longer consume my every thought
Every beat of my tattered heart will no longer sing your name
I will no longer breathe your curse
Because I have the strength of a thousand men
And I have finally realized
I am strong enough to get over you
