Words aren't enough sometimes
To show how and why I feel what I do
Words fail me
I don't know which to use
Never before has my heart been so set on doing this thing I insist I must.
Your threats are like whispers in the wind
They fall short of their mark
I know you love me
You think you do
And this must give you the right to decide my fate.
There's a wall around my heart
Thick with conviction
Your insults lie useless before it
I must make my fate and if I fail then I have no one else to blame.
If all you're thinking of is your reputation
Then I'm sorry I don't matter to you as much as I thought
You'll see what I need if only you'll see beyond yourself
I need your support, your love
But I can do without your approval if it means standing for what I believe in.
Silence is my gift to you
And in the night if the whispers become roars
I'll leave like a thief
Taking only the memories of who you were with me.
