Why

You forced me into so many unspeakable things
Which threaten to haunt and ruin me for as long as I live
Yet now every time you speak to me you try to make it seem
I'm the one who tortured you and you lovingly forgive

Why must you pretend nothing you did was ever wrong
After all of the sadistic things you put me through
How can you claim to know better than I how I feel
Why do you expect me to believe I love you
