Love Trumps Hate

I feel myself entering the darkness
I feel my body start to shake
As my muscles tense more and more
Wanting to let my rage go in one shot

Hearing his lies and his games is torture
It makes me seethe with uncontrollable rage
It makes me for just one minute in my life
Want to become the monster I am inside

But I made a promise to a girl
That I wouldn't touch him
That I wouldn't break his jaw
And I wouldn't break his spirit

Even though every part of me
Hates this guy and wants to break him
I will continue to keep my promise because
I love the girl with all my heart and soul

Even if my anger towards him
Starts to rip me apart at the seams
I will endure it and stand strong
So that I can always be there for her
