Why is it when you speak, I listen to what is said,
But when I speak my truth, I get left on read.
All these games, they starting to **** with my head.
What happens to our love, if it never gets fed?
I don't wanna think about mornings without you,
I don't wanna think about nights without you,
Honestly, really, I don't wanna think thoughts about you.
Yet I do every single day it's you, I crave,
My friends saying it's okay to leave, be brave.
It's not so easy, ugh it's not so easy to walk away,
Without ever getting the chance, to speak what I need to say.
So listen you hurt me. You hurt me so deep,
What we used to have, I thought was ours to keep.
We don't connect any more, we don't agree,
Right or left? One, two, or three?
Maybe something more simple, like you and me?
One foot in and one foot out,
Seems to be what your all about.
I need communication,
I need contentment,
****, I just need some **** commitment.
We're not in highschool, we are not children,
If your not all in, then what are we buildin?
Throw the games away, take away the rules,
Grow with me, stop listening to these fools.
Why do we have the same **** fight every **** day?
I've reached my limit, at this point I need a reason to stay.
Have you ever been in a one sided relationship? It can be exhausting. I'm too grown for that. Here's a piece I wrote about one of my experiences in the past, with someone who didn't seem to know how to.. grow up.. for lack of better words.
