Everything always goes so well
But with the slip of the tongue it goes so wrong
Words are just words
But are like a dagger through heart when spoken with anger
You push and push
The tears come so easy
Too bad you couldn't see them
Your too busy trying to hurt me
If only you could open your eyes and really look
then you would see the tears running down my cheek
You think it's a game
For me its a choice
Do I stay or do I go?
I turn my head so you can't see
at night I muffle my face into the pillow so you can't hear
that what you say does indeed cause me pain
your words cut deep
deeper than any cut through the skin
the pain worse than a blade slicing through
why can't you open your eyes and see that when words hurt it's time to change
when words hurt they say it's time to go
people don't see though
they don't see the love that I have for you
the love that I have is real
why would you hurt me
I can take the words
I can take the pain
I can take the silence
I can take it all
except the tears you can't see.
