It hurts


Sometimes I see you You're still beautiful as ever All the words you say You say, "I love you" With those words I always believe I start to think about our future The possibilities we may have Sometimes those words, Don't mean anything The constant "I love you" After an argument, A fight, Or anything at all I always believed You say you "love" me And always say, "I will never hurt you" I say, "I will always promise too." To my knowledge you always do And to later say, "I love you" Wouldn't change a damn thing If I try to get away You always beg Getting me to stay What can I tell you? Nothing. Cuz you never seem to fuckin care You seem different You seem to brush it off as nothing Whatever I do, you seem to fuckin hate Seeming like I could be better than you Why stay with me? It's all I ask But all I here is, "I love you" I'm stuck here I know someday, I will see a new tomorrow But for now I live in a nightmare Called "Love" I look up one day, I see freedom With all of my heart, I yearned this day to come. I'm finally free Free of my misery Free of the danger Free of what I thought was "Love" Now I find "Love" for myself To get stronger and live life peacefully
