Broken Home
These walls are closing in
the yelling is getting worse
always running through my head
are these thoughts of divorce
I don't know how long I can take it
I don't know how long I can last
every time we argue
you want to talk about the past
I am trying to stay calm
I am trying to give you a break
but if this fighting continues
I'll leave for both our sake
I am desperately confused
I am frightened and alone
even when we're together
this house just isn't our home
One minute you're happy
the next madder then hell
I'm afraid to move or breath
Your reaction I just can't tell
