You said I do but you don't

You said I do
But it turns out you don't
All the things you said you would
It turns out you won't    
The lies keep multiplying  
As I hold on faithfully  
Its time to face the truth  
There is no future with thee

Stronger Everyday

Thought it would be hard to lose you 
Thought it would be hard to walk away 
Thought it would be hard to live without you 
But it gets easier everyday  
The old me is gone now   
The new me is here to stay 
Aint no turning back now 
Getting stronger everyday
