Relationship troubles...
I wish I didn't have to put up with this anymore more
I wish I could leave, just get on a plane

All this guy does is gripe and complain
Oh why oh why can't it be the same?

I feel kin to a bird in a cage longing to fly
But when it has a chance to be set free, how comfortable can it be?
It has grown complacent in captivity

I've tried so many times to leave--it hurts--so much pain from heartache until i became numb
Oh what is it about him?
I reminisce about when I used to really smile
His touch, his looks, his voice, his gentleness just drove me wild
With him I felt as carefree as a young child
He made me feel protected and also well respected

What ever happened between then and now?!

Now he gets so angry, so suspicious and accusing
Its almost at the border of emotional abusing
He plays mind games and of course is always right, never wrong
Holds my shortcomings over my head, saves them as arsenal just for fights--same ole sad song
He calls me a liar constantly, but claims he loves me
Am I going insane? How can you love me if you don't trust me???
Someone make me understand

There are the tears I was not able to keep from falling
If he loves me, then why am I ignored until I am no where to be found?
Tears of a fool, or perhaps of a sad clown
