I don’t miss you anymore, not the person you’ve become
The old you was the person that I thought was the one
The one that cared and appreciated the things that she had
Was replaced by a stranger with some manufactured fad

How can I miss someone I’ve never met before
As the person that was once there is hidden behind a door
And until that door opens and I don’t know if it will
I can’t stand here waiting for these awful wounds to heal

I won’t waste my time, my energy and my strength
Hoping you’ll try to swim that final length
And reach the shore of enlightenment but utter regret
And become that person that you were once again
