Pull up and Move on

You don’t need me

You've made that clear

Now I have decided

I don’t need you

I am not going to cry

I will not whimper

Instead I will survive

Pull up and move on

I am a fighter

Every time I have fallen

I have gotten up

And carried on

Now is no different

I can live without you

I may occasionally stagger

But I will survive
