Entropy

Rock
Hard place 
Rock
Hard place 
Your fist 
My face

Exhausted.....

I rest
My head
On your chest

You say that 
You're right 
Which again
Starts a fight
This scene it plays out
Each and every night

A rock
And a hard place
My fist
And your face

Relationship 
Unrecognizable 
Our differences 
Irreconcilable 

Our anger is pent
Patience is spent
All that's left is resent

This life
Not for the faint
Of heart
No remorse 
No restraint 

Morals?
Attacking
Respect?
It is lacking

Understanding?
No none
Consideration?
I'm done

And when love's all that's left 
I think that love's all but left 
The house 
Or the building 
I'm a louse 
This is building 

Not stolen 
Not theft 
But strangled 
To death
By hands 
Oh so deft

And in one 
Fatal action
Devoid of
Compassion 

We smothered our flame
Killed our love
What a shame

Better to break
Than to bend
Oh how I want this to end.....
