The guilt will kill me, if you don't first
You don't come home at night
I always think the worst
tear myself open over him
satisfy his thirst
My pride above my mind
when will I be reimbursed
you read me like a book
I think your act is rehearsed
I'd be alone every time I looked away
if this were reversed
I keep asking myself
what is my worth
I turn my head away
I'm overworked
why is it I can't cry
but you can flirt?
