Don't Wait For Me

Original song by Mileena Rayne
-
I know you mean every word you say,
You think giving me love will make me stay.
But I’m not lost, I’m not unsure,

I just know I need something more.
You say you’ll wait, but I wish you wouldn’t,
Love me now like I know you couldn’t.
You swear you’ll break down my walls,
But they weren’t made to fall.

You keep hoping, but hope’s a blade,
Cuts you deep when things don’t change.
You keep swearing I’m worth the pain,
Like I’m someone who’d do the same.
You think if you give it time,
I’ll wake up wanting you to be mine.
But hearts don’t change just ‘cause you stay,
And love don’t grow when it’s forced that way.

Don’t wait for me, don’t waste your time (Don’t wait for me)
Love’s not enough if the timing ain’t right
You want forever, I need space (Don’t waste your time)
You’ll only lose yourself this way
Don’t hold on, don’t try to stay (Don’t hold on)
I won’t be yours just ‘cause you pray
Don’t wait for me, just walk away (Don’t try to stay)
Before I’m the one who makes you break

It’s not that I can’t, not that I won’t,
It’s just that right now, I already know.
Love ain’t something you can demand,
And I can’t give what I don’t understand.
You deserve more than open wounds,
More than someone who won’t choose you.
I know you want this, but I know the truth,
I can’t love you the way you do.

You keep hoping, but hope’s a blade,
Cuts you deep when things don’t change.
You keep swearing I’m worth the pain,
Like I’m someone who’d do the same.
You think if you give it time,
I’ll wake up wanting you to be mine.
But hearts don’t change just ‘cause you stay,
And love don’t grow when it’s forced that way.

Don’t wait for me, don’t waste your time (Don’t wait for me)
Love’s not enough if the timing ain’t right
You want forever, I need space (Don’t waste your time)
You’ll only lose yourself this way
Don’t hold on, don’t try to stay (Don’t hold on)
I won’t be yours just ‘cause you pray
Don’t wait for me, just walk away (Don’t try to stay)
Before I’m the one who makes you break

One day, maybe, I’ll look back and wish,
But I won’t lie, I can’t promise this.
If you stay, you’ll only bleed,
So please, for once, don’t wait for me.

Don’t wait for me, don’t waste your time (Don’t wait for me)
Love’s not enough if the timing ain’t right
You want forever, I need space (Don’t waste your time)
You’ll only lose yourself this way
Don’t hold on, don’t try to stay (Don’t hold on)
I won’t be yours just ‘cause you pray
Don’t wait for me, just walk away (Don’t try to stay)
Before I’m the one who makes you break

Don’t wait for me, don’t waste your time (Don’t wait for me)
Love’s not enough if the timing ain’t right
You want forever, I need space (Don’t waste your time)
You’ll only lose yourself this way
Let me go, don’t turn back (Just let me go)
You deserve more than a love like that
Don’t wait for me, don’t waste your time (Don’t turn back)
Find someone who can love you right
