You Keep Her

Just forget let it all go
Let this be the only place you know
For the sands of time are never kind
I want you to know you will always be mine

You try to escape me 
But my grip is strong see
You know you can never be
This well without me

In the back of your mind I see you crying
You really think about flying
Well go on keep on trying
You don't have the heart to leave me dying

Maybe I am cruel in a way
You think I am selfish though you stay
 I know you don't believe in me
 And i know you really need me 

My pet you are my treasure
Nothing else can measure
This joy I feel keeping you
Making you it real reliving 
the pain you always feel 
i love you
and this is your catch 22
