Caught In Between

I leave in my pickup to work in town 
Then your men start coming around 
I treat you like a queen as you should be 
When I arrive home, there is nothing for me 
Your arms are cold, your words are mean 
Should I stay, should I go, I am caught in between 
You say let's works things out please don't leave 
I gave you my heart, you give nothing in return, you are a thief 
I am sorry, it's time move on 
Before this you were already gone 
Oh how it hurts to tell you goodbye 
Outside I seem tough, but inside I cry 
Your arms are cold, your words are so mean 
Should I stay, should I go, I am caught in between 
Too little too late, I cannot stay 
Long ago you pushed me away 
Please do not call, do not write 
I have been beaten emotionally, I will no longer fight 
I will run to live another day 
I don't think you care what I do anyway 
I have lived in your world of broken dreams 
Should I stay, should I go, I am caught in between
