Day in and day out
Walking through life in a daze
Turn left; then right; and I hit a wall
Trying to maneuver through this fucking maze
I'm lost and tired; my feet are sore
It's been a long long road
The tears, the fights, the long sleepless nights
I just can't take anymore
This goes far beyond simple love or hate
or that things just aren't how they should be
We both deserve better than this; or can't you see
I'm tired of leaving it up to fate
Giving in to prevent the fights
a soul kept in the dark
Sleeping in bed alone each night
no way to rekindle the spark
We merely exsist together; you and I
Each of us doing our own thing
Don't wanna face another day
Waking up every morning with a tear in my eye
in fear of what the day will bring
You're not happy; this I know
So I ask you why you stay
I tell you I think I should go
But you only stand in my way
My heart skips a beat
with every slam of the door
My heart crumbles into a million pieces
every time you mutter the words "slut" or "whore"
Why can't we just admit defeat
And hold onto what's left of our dignity
Would it be so wrong for us to part
It doesn't mean that we failed
Wouldn't it be worth a shot
If it would mean that we could be happy
It's only just a matter of time
By then it may be too late
Our hearts can only handle so much
in their already fragile state
I think it's time you cut the strings
and let this puppet dance on her own
If it's meant to be then I'll be back in your arms
as history has already shown
