Don'T Need You

How good it feels knowing that 
I don’t need you anymore
I don’t long for you anymore
I don’t care for you anymore
I just don’t love you anymore

How free it makes me feel to know
I can live without you
I am strong without you
I can reach for the stars without you
I can laugh without you

How exhilarating to know
I can dream without you
I can smile without you
I breathe fine without you
I don’t want you anymore

This was the last time you’d hurt me
I’ll never ever shed another tear because of you
I’ll forget you, as if you’d never existed
I’ll carry on with my life, free from your memories
As if I never cared about you anyway
