Truth Eating At Me
Restless sleep
Tossing and turning
To think about the words
You spilled without thought
Anger burning the truth onto your tongue
To tell me what you think
That it was just my pride
I doomed my own fate
Made the choice that got me beat every day
Do you think I asked for it
Because I continued to stay
Tell me again
You think no less of me
But now the truth hangs
Between you and me
And we toss and turn
Unable to sleep
Guilt eating at you
Truth eating at me
