It's your to-do list That bothers me the most And excellent way to controll someone It's kind of like that man Who only utters the words "I love you" To reward "good behavior" That is the same way you Perform your "Duties, responsabilities and expectations" The way you have lived your life With me Is increasingly similar To the way you lived with your mother "I'll just do all of this to shut her up" Meanwhile you continue To ignore me To disengage And to allow the tears to flow What I wouldn't have done For your attention three years ago But that time has passed... I no longer wait for you To pay attention To love me To touch me In fact The idea of you doing Any of the above Irks me Please please please Just take your things and go You can have it all You can even have the cats You can keep everything We got together When we built this home You can have it all In exchange for my freedom How is it that I ever let you have it anyway? My youth's mistake I suppose Should've broken free in time Now I'm stuck in a rut Catching my breath For a fresh breeze Please just leave No tears to shed They're all wasted Just a smile on my face As the truth slowly spreads Through your worn eyes There's nothing here anymore Please just leave

It must've been love... A long time ago.
