-Girl I Refuse-

Girl I refuse
Such truth
Tell me a lie
It helps me deal
Reality left unclear
I don’t want to face
What I’ve done
To you and to us
I can’t bear to think
Of what it will mean
To not have you
In my life as my loving wife
You gave me everything
Just as quick I dismantled it
Not because I didn’t want it
But because I didn’t trust it
I had to know what makes us tick
I had to understand what was inside
Even if what was inside was ugly
Such an uncontrollable need to know
When I should be happy and content
Is a side effect of my youth
It has left me incapable
Love has always been a mystery
An incurable disease that I immune to
Girl I refuse
To know what you wish to tell me
The true cause of all that I’ve done
In tears you came to me
In tears you will leave me
I will not cry, only further deny
Even after you are gone
Even after I have confessed
All of my wrongs
I will still hold on
Girl I refuse
To know the truth that you
So desperately want me to believe
That you and I and our love
Is certainly through…
