Until Then

You're hurting my feelings over here

I have to be strong

Can't show weakness in front of you

I'm never good enough for you

You just speak of the things that I do wrong

And when I do something right it goes unnoticed

I ask myself why it has to be this way

But it's how you express yourself, I know this

You're lost and so low

You have to pull everyone down with you

You're just trying to hurt me, that I can see

I tried to get away, but you wouldn't let me leave

Now matter how much I struggle

I can't get away from your grasp

I don't know why I still have hope that you can change

Maybe time will heal your pain

You're bad for me, I know

But I can't bear to leave you alone

Until then:

The dagger over my heart,

the gun to my head,

the drugs in your hand,

You're finding ways to kill me again
