It's My Turn

It's My Turn

Verse 1

You used to know what it took to put a smile on my face

Lately you've been doing nothing but disappointing me

I asked you if you wanted to talk

But you refused

Now what am I suppose to do?

My head is spinning round and round

And going from side to side

I need to escape before it's too late

Verse 2

They say letting go is the hardest thing you will ever do

But to me, it is as simple as breathing

I know when I walk out the door you won't cry or feel sorry

If you do, I will not stop to turn around

I have made my final choice

I had the courage to stand up for myself

And say I have had enough

I'll never regret what I'm about to do

Verse 3

I've made a lot of mistakes ever since I've been with you

But on other occasions, you were the one who played the fool

It got even worse when you constantly made the same mistakes

I felt so ashamed of myself 

Because I was involved with someone like you

Fortunately, those days will be behind me

I want to live my life without you

Even being friends would be a disaster

Don't put the blame on me because you had time to change

Bridge

I'm not saying "See you later" or "So long"

That's not going to happen

I'm finally in charge

So I'll be making my move 

Chorus

It's my turn to walk away

I am not going to be the one left behind

Don't think about stopping me

I will not allow you

It's my turn to change

So I'll be saying goodbye

Cool piece. I feel like its lack of a proper rhyming scheme was intentional and it really helped you to get the message out. Sometime we really do have to give up on some thing. When there's no possible future for it. Its easier to do the hard thing and let go. It will always work outbetter in the llong run. You got you point out there with such brilliant ease. Well done. Keep it up.
