D. Monell Edwards - It's Over Now

It's over now
The truth's out, no doubt
Yeah
The whispers in the hallways, the secrets in your eyes
Late nights at the office, the fabricated lies
Suspicion grew like vines around my heart
So I played my role, a business trip to set us apart
Booked a room, rented a car, stranger in disguise
Watched you from afar, with pain behind my eyes
You slipped away, under the cover of night
Followed your trail, to his doorstep, bathed in moonlight
The sight of you together, my heart skipped a beat
A knot in my stomach, a taste so bitter so sweet
You laughed, you kissed, oblivious to my pain
As I watched from the shadows, drenched in the rain
Waited in the darkness, heart pounding in my chest
As you emerged together, your secret finally confessed
It's over now, the game's come to an end
No more pretending, no more pretending to be your friend
I saw it with my own eyes, the truth you tried to hide
Congratulations on your new love, it's time for me to strive
Time will strive, a new love, it's time for me to strive
To strive, for me too
You thought you were so clever, so slick, so smooth
But you underestimated my love, and the lengths I'd go to prove
You played with fire, and now you've been burned
This love's a bridge, it's been forever turned
I watched you drive away, with him by your side
A wave of emotions I could no longer hide
Betrayal, anger, hurt, and despair
But I knew in that moment, I had to repair
It's time to move on, to heal and to grow
It's over now, the game's come to an end
No more pretending, no more pretending to be your friend
I saw it with my own eyes, the truth you tried to hide
Congratulations on your new love, it's time for me to strive
Time will strive, a new love, it's time for me to strive
I won't let your actions define me or break my stride
I'll rise above this pain with dignity and pride
This is a lesson learned, a chapter to close
I'm leaving you behind with all your woes
This ain't the end of the world, just the end of us
I'll find a love that's true, a love that's built on trust
I'll wipe away the tears and end my broken heart
And when I'm ready, I'll make a brand new start
It's over now, the game's come to an end
No more pretending, no more pretending to be your friend
I saw it with my own eyes, the truth you tried to hide
Congratulations on your new love, it's time for me to strive
Time will strive, a new love, it's time for me to strive
So goodbye, my love, it's time to say farewell
I'm taking back my power, breaking free from this spell
No more tears, no more pain, just a newfound peace
I'm walking towards the future where my heartache will cease
