You asked me to stay.
Next minute you walked away.
You asked me to always be there.
Next its like you don't care.
You asked me to trust you.
Next nothing you say is true.
You asked too much of me.
Next I tried to break free.

I asked you to stay away.
Next you were always in my way.
I asked you to give me space.
Next it was like you loved the chase.
I asked you to respect my choice.
Next you tried to take away my voice.
I asked you to set me free.
Next you cage the last of me.
