The Love That You Hold
We are done we are through
I want to forget everything about you
You’re like the old gum that’s stuck under my shoe
Trusted and believed in someone that was so untrue
Well guess what one plus one no longer equals two
I risked my life and so much more
For a relationship that just ended up on the floor
It was no longer fun and dating you became a chore
My heart you held in those rough hands of yours
Little did I know being with you I was going to be at war
You cheated on me with that little **** whore
And you didn’t even know my heart that you held you soon tore
GET OUT of my life was shouted with a roar
Hitting the floor crying as I slammed the door
The pain for you is something of a dream
I thought I could take it but it’s far to extreme
You and I were a great team
Now look at us our love is floating down stream
The part that hurts the most is I can’t even reach out and redeem
I am over you and everything you represent
You threw my heart out a sky scrapper building and now there is blood all over the cement
The devil in my mind as I plot my revenge through the night I spent
But thy Lord comes to me and says just repent
Wiping up the blood from the ground trying to get rid of your scent
But its no use my heart you left with a permanent dent
I sit in my room just to stare at a wall in a gaze
I hope that you come back one of these days
NO I don’t want you as I stand up in praise
As I crash back to the floor in sorrow in my old ways
I am now lost in my own life’s maze
Wishing and praying but your love is not just a phase
The love I had and still have I hold dear
But now and forever I live my life in fear
I lost control of the wheel and can longer steer
I loved you for over a year
And just like that you up and disappear
I love you still and hold you tight under my wing
But I am choking, coughing, crying and wheezing
From the toxic air that you keep on breathing
Exhaling that poison is killing my soul
But the cure of my death is the love that you hold
