Dear, I Can Do Better

You can sit there Glare at me with your frown Dear, I can do better All you do is drag me down Your words don’t hurt me I’ve grown accustomed to their use I’ll ignore you So I don’t deplore you for the abuse Your forced tears don’t faze me As I’m walking out the door Today, I awoke to realize I don’t need you anymore
