I'm a slave to this heartache.
You've got me shackled up in chains.
Every time you speak I praise it like it was the voice of God and I trail in your steps.
Like a dog being pulled on a leash.

I know that I won't be able to keep this up much longer.
I can't stay chained to you forever despite how much I wish I could.

Because it's not healthy.
I can't keep running back to you just because you're lonely.
I can't keep comforting you when you're upset.
You'd never do the same for me.

I can't keep being your last choice when you're my first.
So I must release myself from your grasp and run.

Not because I don't love you, but because you don't love me.
