When will the pain go away,
when will i sleep in peace,
when will i be happy,
when will the crying cease.
Why did you leave me so helpless,
why did you do me so wrong,
why was i trying so hard,
why was i trying so long.
I knew we would never make it,
knew your heart was not mine to keep,
knew your body was not mine i was holding,
knew you never wanted to take the leap.
I gave you all I had in me,
and all i had left to survive,
gave you love, food, and shelter,
but i feel like i was only a test drive.
I worked full time to support you,
you stayed home all day but not night,
i would come home early and see them,
those girls that were not even polite.
To think that your impact meant nothing,
would be a lie to you and to me,
you taught me never to trust a man,
for that i am glad to finally see.
To trust is to be too vulnerable,
and that weakness is what gets you hurt,
so I'm just gunna sit back and wait,
til that right guy comes for me to assert.
