Because you were mine
I walked the line
The line that you Drew
I followed all your rules

I accepted all of you
Our differences, your flaws
Something I never got in return
I didn't notice, because of you

I accepted your faith
Embraced it and your friends
You hated mine
Suggested I leave it behind

And all those things swept under the rug
That only you and I know
I did those too
Because you'd dreamed I would

I left behind a dream of mine
Because your friends were waiting
I had fun, I did
Was it because you said I would?

And the day you decided to give up
Let me do all the work
Yours was a "reasonable cause"
I relaxed, because I had to trust you

And if I still cursed
You know what I'd say
But I gave that up too
Because you asked me to

Because you were mine
I never saw these as unfair
I let you bring my faults to light
Now how does it feel, lover?
