No Give No Take

Bend, Bend ,Bend It's what you expect Never realizing how much it breaks my back Walking on tip toes Every single day Just to appease you, to keep the peace within It's like a game of chess I'm never going to win I don't know the rules or even how to play You say you want respect But it's a two way street You have to give it to recieve it, even from me You treat me like Cinderella Always doing, doing, doing Never asking for anything in return Maybe one day you'll notice me Underneath all this sut and dirt After all I am your lady I'm supposed to be your queen But how am I to try and act politely With an iron fisted king
