The Time Is Right

It's time now, 
The time for the decision 
I don't want to go back. 
I won't... 
I won't devour the sadness, 
I want to be happy! 
I don't want to go back! 

The way you make me unhappy isn't right.. 
I don't wanna sit here and be all hurt, 
I'm happy here, 
So let me be happy. 
I want to stay, 
You can't say no, 
It's the law. 
It's also my heart. 

Don't tell me no. 
I'm tired of making you happy, 
When I'm the one that I need to make happy. 
I realize now.. 
That it's my decision. 
My choice! 

I'm not sorry, 
Because this is my life. 

I will make myself happy.
