Inspired by a fight with my boyfriend |
I know you want me to shut the fuck up Cut me off and not have a opinion I try to stop myself from being My vocal self my very essence Grab some some tape and have some fun Wrap it around my so called tongue That will give you some peace of mind At least for a minute while you unwind I’ll spare you my rants and my thoughts How silly of me to think so much Why speak up I only complain Nothing I say has any weight Smile pretty and behave like the rest Look good be quiet and don’t protest All is well as long as you Do as I say and don’t be brave Clean do dishes and act like you’re fine Ignore those voices that tell you otherwise You are the thing that I contain Into this box this square this frame It’s all I know and what I expect A learning curve and I suggest Get use to being treated this way Feel lucky feel privileged And don’t walk away I hold this over you I confess But what can you do except, accept? This is the way that things are done Don’t make waves or trouble my dear Just go along with what you hear If I keep you silent everybody wins And that is what keeps me, me and you with them If I hold you down then I succeed Which benefits us all as you will see What’s good for me is good for me So sit and be good and of course smile pretty |
