Lonely As Hell

Married and together yet I'm lonely as hell,
Will things ever get better it is sure hard to tell,
From where I stand things get worse everyday,
I think I'm ready to throw in the towel, let you be, and go my seperate way;

I've tried and tried to talk to you,
But there's just no getting through,
You never admit to any wrong,
So it's time we say so long;

If now you were to say you'd like to work it out,
There's just too much doubt,
You're efforts would just be in vain,
Too little, too late, and way too much pain;

I no longer want to even try,
I've wasted a lot of feelings on you, WHY,?
It's been 8 years and you're never going to truly love me,
Go have a great and blessed life, you're FREE;

All I ever wanted was to love you,
It used to be so easy to do,
But, you have become someone I totally don't know,
So now you have finally got what you want I'm letting you go;...
