Someone is knocking at my door and it's a knock that Ive heard before
In the past
I've made the mistake and opened it wide not really caring who resides on the other side
To my surprise I got hurt
Burned, scared, stabbed, punched, kicked
Shall I go on
Left me laying on the side lines wondering what caused my demise
What harm did I cause you for you to make my eyes cry
To make me wish I would die
Or better yet
Hope you would die
Now here you are again
Knocking that same knock
Yes, you are in different form
But how do I know that your change isn't just skin deep
So instead of my opening my door wide,
This time
I'm going to shut it tight
I'm going to close the blinds and Turn off the lights
I'm going to hide in corner and patch my wounds
I'm sorry Love
but you aren't welcomed here anymore

I always wanted you to let me in
but I eventually realized
you had nothing
inside.

Not everyone has to go through these struggles
Accusations,  lies and broken glass rumbles

Tempers that flare
Parts eveywhere
Yelling and banging
The neighbors must stare

They wonder how a girl like me could fall for this trick
The promises have all made me quite sick

Name calling,  ranting,  interrogations and such
Have left me to feel like O' quite the 'duck'

But it's my history that has left me scarred and flawed
One which has come back and opened a door

A door for a future that is peaceful and sweet
One which I have yet to meet

But I'm on the brink, with the knocker in my hand
Just about ready to take my final stand

Look my history dead in the eye
I'm finally ready to get over this high

"I'm all grown up now can't you see"
Then close the door
"Stop ******* with me"

It's time to stop repeating the  mistakes of others
For the love of god I don't want to be my mother
