Breaking Up
breaking up is so very hard to do
especially when it's me and you
we have tried to keep our love alive
but! apparantly it has died.
love and respect go hand in hand
and that is something you don't understand
if respect you had given me
this love would have lasted eternally.
when we first got together
life seemed so much better
then with time you started to change
and with any problem-i was to blame.
i tried to give you the world
and into our life came a little girl
with this little girl i thought that things would get better
instead you became a control fanatic
and any little word it became static.
i know that everything in life is two sided
right-wrong-up-down-so i listened to your complaints
about everything including me
and i made changes drastically.
but the changes were to no avail
for you did not see that you still tried to control me
and everyone around.
and if they did'nt agree you'd put them to the ground
love is not who is in control
love grows from the inner soul
and if this did not happen to you
that your knees are weak, your heart skips a beat
and everything in life seems happy and gay
and your mind starts to stray.
then i think that what it is-is that i never entered your heart
deep enough to make those feelings rise
instead you chose to live a lie
so with this we must part
in hopes that we'll both find a new start.
this is the part of breaking up that we must bear
this is the part of breaking up that we both share
.
