I’m Crying all the time
You bring me down at
least you try
Until we get this right
I don’t want you
I must be running out of breath
Cause you’re just not
who i thought you were
And now I’ve had it up to here
I don’t want you
It took so long for me to see
You walked away from me
When I needed you the most
Wake up I’m pounding
on the door
I’m not the girl who
I used to be
Where are you
When I need you
Wake up i'm pounding
on the door
I won’t let you
hurt me anymore
I’m hurting all the time
You push me down and make me cry
Until we see this eye to eye
I don’t want you.

i liked the repition of 'i don't want you'. it made the message much more effective. however, since you didn't follow the prompt... I don't know if I'll be able to judge this one-- but it is an EXCELLENT write.

As i said it before took me a while to get all
the wording right, i was trying to get it right, because i kept wanting to sing the song,lol.So it took me while to sit and think of how the song really spoke to me so then i the words really flowed out then.
