I can tell you've been drinking,

cause your words are brass tacks,

you try to press them in to me.

because you're caught in a spiral

of your own overthinking,

you're your own worst enemy.

And you don't care what you break,

as long as you get what you want to take,

and you don't care what you destroy

as long a the last word brings you joy

assumptions an accusations,

just make an ass out of you...

you think you're too cute and you're too cool for school,

but using silence as a weapon is emotional abuse.

And you don't care what you break,

as long as you get what you want to take,

and you don't care what you destroy

as long a the last word brings you joy

clingy... controlling...

but you're always the victim.

I feel sorry for your husband,

cause I've heard your threats to him.

Your pity party can be at a table for one.

I don't need your issues.

I'll send you some tissues.

I'm done.

And you don't care what you break,

as long as you get what you want to take,

and you don't care what you destroy

as long a the last word brings you joy
