You use your words to crush me and to sink beneath my skin

You think your actions are justified, and that I should just open up, let you in

You think that it's okay to make me feel real small

When really, that's not how this love thing works at all

I remember when it was good, just like they said it'd be

I know that I'm worth more than this , but I can't see past the label you've given me

I know it's not okay for me to feel this small

When I think of all you've done, I should've left last fall

You do these things that hurt me, and make me want to fight

But it's because you love me, right?
