Some relationships don’t end with a door slam . . they end with slow realizations. DONE is about finally seeing the truth in hindsight and choosing to break free from the weight of it all. It’s not about bitterness . . it’s about clarity. About saying, “This was never love. And I’m done.” The track speaks to the aftermath of emotional abuse and the quiet power of walking away for good.
I wrote this as a reminder to myself . . and to my kids . . that we’re not bound to the pain someone else caused. That trauma doesn’t define us. That freedom doesn’t need an apology. It’s taken years to untangle what really happened and to accept how truly messed up it all was. But this song is that turning point. The one where I stop explaining and start healing. For anyone who’s had to choose themselves after too much damage . . this is for you.
I waited on a love that never came,
Replayed every word, drove myself insane.
But silence said more than you ever did,
Guess I was the only one lost in it.
Done with the why’s, done with the pain,
Done holding space for a love that changed.
I’m not looking back, I’m breaking the chain,
And I feel lighter every day.
Unspoken - but I hear it now,
No more waiting, no more doubts.
Unbroken - even with the scars,
Turns out I’m better where you are not.
Oh, I’m better off, better off now.
Used to think I needed some grand goodbye,
To make sense of the mess, to justify the time.
But turns out, I don’t need your truth to move on,
I’m writing my story, and you’re already gone.
Done with the why’s, done with the pain,
Done holding space for a love that changed.
I’m not looking back, I’m breaking the chain,
And I feel lighter every day.
Unspoken - but I hear it now,
No more waiting, no more doubts.
Unbroken - even with the scars,
Turns out I’m better where you are not.
Oh, I’m better off, better off now.
(Ooh, ooh - yeah, yeah, yeah)
Didn’t need your closure,
Found my own composure.
Silence was the answer,
Now I see it clearer.
Unspoken - but I hear it now,
No more waiting, no more doubts.
Unbroken - even with the scars,
Turns out I’m better where you are not.
Oh, I’m better off, better off now.
Didn’t think I’d ever be done,
But I am - and it feels so good.
