Words In a Fist
Your words hurt more then ice cold fists
I don't see how you could have missed
Your words of spite, I know not against me
You take it on on the ones you love
Like a boxer with a barbwire glove
The words you use hurt more then ever
I can't see why you want us together
Maybe one day you could see
I'm not good enough for you, and your words outmatch me
It hurts my heart and breaks my soul
If only someday you'd believe what I had told
I loved you the day I say your face
And I will till I am forgotten and old
Though the words you hit me with
I know I am a dolt
The words you throw in my face feels like a lightning bolt
Your words will do as much as they feel
I know the way you treat me
Is undirected, because I feel your empathy
When you throw the final punch
Aim for my heart, and try to forgive me
