I Shine

Mind ensnared by you all this time
Heart I shared with you, you crushed, though it’s mine
Fuck off over there in the corner you swine
Everything you said to me a lie, still I shine

I shine because I’m rid of you
I shine because you’re gone
I shine because I’ve stamped you out
Though it made me feel so wrong

I shine because we never speak
I shine because that’s it!
I shine because we’ll never meet
Stay gone, you piece of shit
