She pulls back
Unable to handle her fear
Her body shakes
As she stand her ground
"I won't be bullied"
"I won't be hurt"
Her mind is set
Her heart can't change
She's tired of fighting
...of losing
A single tear
Is her only regret
As it rolls down her cheek
She knows she is weak
But her heart can't change
She's hurt too long
She'd had enough
How could she handle it again?
She won't...
No more lies!
No more pain!
It's his turn.
She's doesn't want to
But she knows she must
Her heart can't change
She can't give up
She can't let him win
He won't...
She's determined to be strong
"Don't let him decide for me"
Her mind says...
"Don't let me change"
She looks in his eyes
And begins to break
"NO!"
Her heart screams...
"It's not too late!"
She stares him down
And begins to speak
Her voice barely trembles
Her heart is firm
He stares silently
As he listens to her words.
She did love him...
But she had hurt too much...
She couldn't stay with him...
Her heart can't change.
