I do want to be stronger, it's just hard
I don't even like this wine that I'm drinking,
But it's here,
It might stop me from thinking.
Tonight he grabbed me,
He threw me onto the ground.
Then his foot landed in my ribs,
I still hear the sound;
The hollow thump,
A gasp leave my lungs;
Him shouting at me
"you had enough?".
Yeah, I have.
I'm sick of all of this sh*t.
Every push, every insult, every slap, every hit;
You might have said sorry,
but you did it again.
You aren't sorry now and you weren't sorry then.
I think worst of all,
Is I gave my best friend all this grief.
And I don't mean you,
I mean the only one who cares when you hurt me.
I mean the one who showed me kindness,
And who loved me for free.
And she's not going to stay for me forever,
Because I can't even choose me.
And I know that's it's wrong so I say I'll leave
And then instead of breathe I can only grieve
And you should grieve me because you're driving me away
But instead I'll miss you and I'll fold in a day.
But you keep on adding onto the stress;
And then I'm upset, so I go and tell her.
Now we're in a place where nobody could express,
How deep in all of our veins runs your hurt.
