Change.

I ask you to put on a mask
You obey
But the mask you wear
You wear for me

You hide yourself from me
I stay afraid to ask
It hurts me everytime you mention
Every woman in your shameful past

You look at me
You look at her
I look away
To keep your sins a blur

I can't compete
With anyone
You say you love me
Then you play me for fun

I ask you to change
You could never
The only thing that could fix this bond
Is a sever

I ask you to change
But that won't undo
Every mistake from the past
That I hold against you

I've asked you to change
Time and time again
I know what you did
She's not just a friend!

I've asked you to change
So many times before
You left me crying on the bathroom floor
While you headed for the door

How can I ask you to change?
Will it change your heart and mind?
Will you love me more?
Or am I fool to believe you could leave that part of you behind?
