All Messed Up
he says he loves me
but he lied
he fell asleep again
and didn't say goodnight
he glares at me but
says he's not
it bothers me
I love him alot
I know what I did
to make him so mean
I thought we were ok
or so it seemed
there's so much anger
in his eyes
I guess it's because
of all my lies
I know he loves me
and I love him
why did I commit
that awful sin
our life was great
not long ago
we were happy
and it showed
I don't know
if it's me or what
all i know
is we're in a rut
I'm under stress
and so is he
we have no food
and no money
I went to bed
and sang a song
and thought about
what was wrong
I didn't get mad
cause I said a prayer
he woke up
and saw me there
he put his arms around me
and held me tight
I could tell by his touch
that he loved me that night
