Do not wait for me no matter how many tears you see fall down my face as I cry.
Do not wait for me as I clutch to my side.
Do not wait for me no matter how many times I stare at you.
Do not wait for me as I die slowly wanting to hold you.
Do not wait for me no matter how many times I say I miss you.
Do not wait for me as I walk down the hall, passing you on my way.
Do not wait for me no matter how many times I say I do.
Do not wait for me, because all I am doing is hurting you.
