Split - A - Part

You said I was your split-a-part.

Stitched you up, tried to heal your broken heart

All the while you said I was your split-apart

You speak words, forget,But have some tea

But you said awful things, like how you'd kill me

I wasn't scared, still I don't think I'm scared

I stay only because I thought you cared

Your words are knives bitter sweet

like torn up letters that you keep

I'm twisted and evil in your mind

All I ever did was be true and kind

You were once quiet and comforting

Now you are loud and combating

How did our love become toxic?

I used to drink you up like an alcoholic.

But then you wanted to end me.

I tried to let you be, please divorce me.

But you can't seem to let me go.

You threaten to take all that I know

Your hate - your love - is paralyzing

I can't live with all this fighting

I hear your breathing on the phone

But I do not dare to be caught alone

Conflicted and confused only emptiness left in my heart

I tried to give you love - you said I was your split-apart
