Here We Go Again

I can tell by the tone of voice

This conversation won’t end well 

She will end up cursing my name

Then telling me to go straight to hell

These talks never end well

It’s like it’s me against the world

And I’m fighting her tooth and nail

When she’s supposed to be my girl

She’s supposed to be my world

But we’re back here at the same spot

Where the pain starts and the love stops

Now suddenly I’m a have not

I haven’t shown her I still care

Despite the fact that I’m still right here

Fighting, every day, ensuring the love does stay

I haven’t opened up my heart

She must have forgot that she holds the key

To not only my heart, but every single part of me

I haven’t been myself lately

But she doesn’t know what I go through

I tried to explain why I keep her out “It’s because when I’m hurting, it seems to hurt you”

My problems, she shouldn’t have to go through 

I’m brave enough to battle on my own

But the disconnect from this war vet

Seems to break up our happy home

It’s like physically I’m here

But mentally I’m gone

And I’ll be back soon enough

I mean you no harm

I still love you
