When I'm Done

Verse 1
I watched you from afar, in quiet lines,
Counting smiles that weren’t even mine.
Every laugh, a spark in my day,
Every glance, a game I couldn’t play.

I memorized your favorite things,
Saved my heart for imaginary rings.
Silent wishes in the night,
Hoping someday it would feel right.

Pre-Chorus
But longing for someone who doesn’t see,
Is like chasing shadows endlessly.
I deserve a sun that shines on me…

Chorus
When I’m done, done, done
I won’t wait, wait, wait
For someone who never knew my name.
When I’m done, done, done

I’ll be free, free, free
From wishing things could be the same.
No more “maybe someday” hums,
No more heartbeats tied to crumbs.

When I’m done, done, done —
I’m done.

Verse 2
I built castles in my mind,
Stories where you were mine.
But reality whispered clear,
Some dreams are not meant to appear.

I won’t shrink to fit your view,
I won’t fade just to follow you.
If you never knew I cared,
I’ll rise anyway, prepared.

Pre-Chorus
Silent crushes don’t need blame,
But I won’t let my heart stay the same.
I deserve a love that actually comes…

Chorus
When I’m done, done, done
I won’t wait, wait, wait
For someone who never knew my name.
When I’m done, done, done

I’ll be free, free, free
From wishing things could be the same.
No more “maybe someday” hums,
No more heartbeats tied to crumbs.

When I’m done, done, done —
I’m done.

Bridge
Flustered feelings flipping, folding,
Fickle fantasies fast-unfolding.
Maybe-mind-made-maybe-mistakes,
Mixing mini “maybes” into major heartbreaks.

Sappy, snappy, secretly stuck,
Soft-spoken, stubborn, silly with luck.
Craving crumbs from a crush who could
Care less, guess yes, never would.

Wishful whispers, wild and wrong,
Writing “we” where it’s just “one.”
Quick-quit, clean-cut, curtain call —
Done-done-done, delete it all.

Final Chorus (Bigger Energy)
When I’m done, done, done
I’ll have won, won, won
Over every tear I almost cried.
When I’m done, done, done

I’ll move on, on, on
With my whole heart open wide.
You were sweet — but not the one.
And I’ll smile when this is done.

When I’m done, done, done…
Yeah, I’m done.
