Over

by Ashley Washer   Oct 13, 2004


I tried to open your eyes,
I tried to make you see,
but you didn't want to be bothered,
you just wanted people to leave you be.

All you wanted to do was drugs,
you didn't care what kind they were,
as long as you could have them anytime,
didn't you know they made you act like a jerk.

I always was the one to give you money,
but sometimes I refused,
so you would hit me until I gave in,
but don't worry no one ever saw me bruised.

My friends told me I needed to get out,
but my love for you wouldn't let me,
I gave them up to be with you,
could you not see.

I didn't know How to tell you to stop,
so I just let you hit me,
but it was different this time,
somehow the doctor knew and tried to get me to leave.

I told her she was wrong,
I told her I had fell,
but she didn't believe me,
she said she could tell.

She said I need to get help,
but I just repeated I had fell,
I told her not to make it worse,
I didn't want to have to live in hell.

A couple of weeks later I was giving you money again,
but I guess it want enough,
because she just kept saying she needed more,
I gave it to her because I didn't know how to be tough.

A week later she was out,
but this time I said no,
I told her she couldn't have anymore money,
I said she had to go.

She started to cry,
and said she loved me,
but I couldn't take it anymore,
I just wanted her to see.

I took what little I had,
and started to leave,
it took all my strength no to cry,
but I know this was how it had to be.

I just hope that was enough,
I hope she will open her eyes,
and see that drugs won't get her anywhere,
I just want her to realize.

I just want her to get better,
I don't want her to wake up and see me hurt,
knowing she was the one that did it,
I can see after-wards she feels like dirt.

She always apologizes the next morning,
thats why I stayed for two years,
but it got to be to much,
and even the apologies couldn't dry my tears.

I'm so very sorry baby,
I just couldn't be in that kind of relationship anymore,
I couldn't stand watching you hurt me and you,
thats why I took that walk out the door.
