Stop Trying

I try to say 'I love you',
I try to show it.
Everytime I let you in,
You always seem to blow it.
Faithfulness is easy,
Being truthful is hard.
I had two choices, and you chose the wrong card.
Why don't we remain
To be "US" again?
Can't help but to cry,
When the love leaves your eyes.
You'd leave me if you could,
Which is something I've never understood.
Why do you stay with me
When I don't make you happy?
Just go away and leave me alone!
I deserve to be alone...
I'm the worst thing in your life.
The worst decision for your wife.
Just leave me now.
Stop making us suffer through this!
Please! Just hurry up and do it.
