  • I knew when to pack it in
    And admit itu0027s over
    And I knew when to stop

    calling him at all
    And I knew when to stop crying
    On my mamau0027s shoulder

    And when to spend away my blues on new shoes at the mall

    Oh I did my part
    Held up my end of the bargain
    Stopped all my whining

    Stopped throwing fits
    but Iu0027m losing my patience
    And Iu0027m so tired of waiting
    Cause the hurt donu0027t know when to quit

    Itu0027s got a mind of its own
    It wonu0027t listen
    No matter if I beg and plead
    And if

    I scream and shout
    Sometimes I think its on some
    Cruel hearted mission

    To lock me up inside these tears
    And never let me out

    Oh I did my part
    Held up my end of the bargain
    Stopped all my whining

    Stopped throwing fits
    but Iu0027m losing my patience
    And Iu0027m so tired of waiting
    Cause the hurt donu0027t know when to quit Writer/s: ED HILL, RISSI PALMER, SHAYE SMITH
