Lies of the Heart
You are in love with him
There is no one like him
This you should always see
He is your life and your soul
He beats you mercilessly
Because he loves you
There is no one like him
You know you love him
Stay here and bare it all
After a while change will come
What if he kills me ?
No he won't , he loves me
Your kids cry along with you
They hardly sleep and although
It hurts you , you pretend like it's nothing
"Don't cry mom and dad were playing"
Stay you love him , your love will
Certainly change him , stay .
That's what my heart always said
3 years later i am no more .
6 feet under and my children are motherless.
My own heart murdered me and locked
Me in a place where the keys are buried
Was enduring the struggle worth it ?
Did my love have an effect on him ?
Was staying with him the answer ?
The answer is no , I killed myself
