Caught you twice before you caught me once
But we cant talk about that
You say you don't trust me well
That's fine I haven’t trusted you in years
You broke my heart and swept my feelings under the rug
Never allowed to talk about it
I didn't stop you from having a life
I didn’t confine you to one place with threats
But it’s OK for you to do that to me?
Lost two grandfathers in the last 4 years
Did I get to go home for their funerals?
No!
Get to see your family all the time
Don’t get me wrong I love them but its not the same
5 years and two deaths is way to long
you have kept me away
But that ends here
No more threats
No more violence
You want to be gone when I return
Go!
If thats how your acting I’m better off
Then maybe the past will get to rest where it belongs
In the past
Done nothing but walk on eggshells
Been a docile wife trying to give you the time
Time for what now I wonder
Still in the same place we were 4 years ago
You say I’m dead to you
Well then you shouldn’t stick around
Go!
Let me rest like the past
In peace without torture or pain
