Chained to a Wall
Your love so sweet
Causes my heart to beat fast,
And my vision to become blurry
For love can be so blind.
The ecstasy I experience
When you tell me destiny chose us
Makes my heart sing out
For you.
Your eyes and dearest kiss,
Your thoughts and deep breaths are
Things that I miss
When we’re apart.
I wish to drink of your lust
From when the light comes up
From dawn until dusk,
But this I must stop.
You calling me on the telephone,
Making sure that I’m alone.
That I am only for you.
Your woman?
Why do you distrust me so?
Like love potion number nine,
You must have me on the line
Every four hours.
Believing that if you don’t
I may stray and you…
You may fade away.
But your envy and jealousy
Push me from you.
Loyalty is a virtue,
But you do not trust me.
Grabbing my arms you scream
Accusations that are unseen
By my eyes
And the body you so crave.
My body is yours.
But my soul I have reclaimed.
Bruised and scarred.
Burned and marred.
I am a prisoner of your love
Which to me resembles hate
But I stay
I am afraid
Afraid that only you will love me
And that without you,
I am nothing.
Worthless and unworthy.
You hold my heart in your hands
As you did my life last night.
Love cannot be so cruel.
My friends say I must be a fool to believe.
To believe that your words so sweet,
In the heat of the moment are true,
And that the next time you use me
The abuse is not your fault.
Well, I am weary and I am tired.
I don’t give a damn anymore.
You’re not a man, you’re a boy.
I’m a woman, not your toy.
I want to live again,
Not be caged by your insecurities
This is the new me and
There is no remedy to bring me back to you.
I wish to return home
Just hoping you’d leave me alone
After all is said and done
I won’t be the lonely one.
