Dont Act Too Fast

I know you don't understand.
I don't know how you could. 
I never made it clear to you, but lately things are no good. 
I moved 1000 miles away with someone I thought would treat me right,
and now I'm stuck, I'm scared and there's no end in sight. 
I've asked for help but I cut my ties and some said to fight him off,
but they don't understand I've already lost it all.
I tried to fight, I made it worse - maybe I'm not strong enough.
Maybe I never should have thought I was anything like tough. 
I dont know, I blame me too, but I still want to ask you for help,
I just know that again you'll say i brought this on myself.
