Brighter Year
Wish away the disappointment
Will away the tears
Hope for better days
Forget about your fears
Sit and wait so helplessly
Feel the crack upon your heart
Scream your pain into a pillow
Hate hate hate this part
Wait for the ring of the phone
The silence drones on and on
You know he's going to call
You know it won't be long
Your eyes are red and puffy
And finally a noise you hear
You click on and say hello
You knew this moment was near
You let him say he's sorry
Like many times before
You tell him good bye
You could handle him no more
The cheating and lies are over
Moving on should be easy from here
Now you dry your puffy eyes
And look on to a brighter year
