Tarnished Promises

Twisting the knife in my back, the pain is delicious
Is every word meant to be something else?
Do you keep me here for your convenience?
I would change for you, anything for you.

Its time to find out, Its time to own up to the truth.
I need to get this knife out its killing me inside.
I'm not your servant, I'm your spouse.
I love you, and you say you love me too
But why do you do these things?

My heart is heavy with sadness.
I crave you like an animal craves meat.
I need you, I want you, I love you.
What do I need to do to receive that back?

The mother of your children, the caretaker of your home.
I have so much responsibility in my life and so do you.
I thought I had made it clear that you had the key.
The key to my heart.
The lock is rusting, and is breaking.

You promised to take care of it
You promised to cherish it
You promised these things to me.
Your promises are tarnished.

I thought that I had to change to make you happy.
I thought that it would be the only way,
To make you mine again.
I was wrong, I don't have to change.
You do.

Even if you don't think you are wrong.
You should have to consider my feelings too.
Take the knife out of my back.
If you won't start taking care of the key.
stick the knife in the lock,and twist it.
