I hope you hear this once it’s over
just like us when I got sober.
Back when all you did was react
and you wouldn’t face the facts
But you couldn’t understand
what I was going through back then
and every time I would explain
you would run the other way
every time you turned to leave
I was begging you to stay
always praying just to hear
something you would never say

Tried to drink away the pain
but it all remained the same
I had to shed a lot of shame
I held on to everything.
You thought addiction was a game
and I was choosing to play.
Didn’t see me try to stop every single ******* day?
Do you think it was fun for me living that way?
waste away my life,
you really want that in a wife?

I’m sorry I had to leave
your lifestyle wasn’t for me,
or maybe it’s that it was
but you don’t know what does
to someone who’s so ****** up
they won’t stop when they should.
So they keep on steady drinking
just to drown what they are thinking
cause they feel misunderstood.

I’m so glad you’ll never get it.
I’m so glad you’re not an addict.
If you were I bet you’d understand
everything that had happened,
like why I was so attached.
Why I never let you leave,
I was so afraid you were planning to up
and just abandon me.
