Jenny Said

Jenny said RIght or wrong, true or false So many childlike games to play Love me he did, rob me he did Girl one minute, woman the next Do I really need to forgive? Jenny said Time is supposed to Heal my wounds, they tell me Time will make me better But, so long, and my wounds are still here Will I ever stop hurting to feel better? Jenny said I know my life is wrong I know my ways can be better I know many things that need fixing But all I want is some loving Can anyone love me and be accepting? Jenny said As he hits me, again And tries to break me I let my mind wander Knowing life can be better When will it be enough? Jenny said I want to leave him I want to be away But he loves me, you see Maybe this is the love I deserve Or is there really something better? Jenny said One day, I'll find a love That is so great That is so accepting And loves me for who I am Why can't I find this love today? Jenny said I am so damaged, beyond words I am so broken, beyond repair There are so many pieces of me There is no peace within me How can you love me? Jenny said There is no such thing as love Love happens to other people People who have love to give Why do you love me When I have none to give?
