I ask why you never stay.
I ask why you don’t express your feelings.
I ask why you can’t show your emotions.
You said to me,
“Because I can’t commit.”
“I can’t tie myself down.”
“I don’t mean to hurt you.”
“I just can’t take the risk of loving you.”
“I’ll leave you before you can leave me,because that’s what always happens.”
“You’ll leave me the moment I get attached”
“I don’t mean to hurt you”
“ I can’t commit.”
“I can’t put all my trust in someone”
“So instead I’ll take all your trust before you can take mine, because that’s what always happens.”
“You’ll take my trust as soon as I put it in your hands.”
You can’t commit.
You always leave
You take my love
You take my trust
And you leave.
And maybe it’s true,
That you can't commit
But because of you,
I’ll be the one to say
“I can’t commit”
Because
“You took my trust”
And so the nasty cycle continues.
All because
“I can’t commit”
