I look at you,
around this place.
This place we call home.
You have given me so much
Yet I feel so alone.
You gave me false hopes,
of a life filled with more
than what you will give.
You don't give me your love,
You don't give me your time,
You don't give me encouragement,
You mess with my mind.

I've given so much of myself
To keep it all together
Without you, without any help.
I've tried for years
to hide your secrets,
to hide my fears.

I thought it was all over.
The battle with your demons.
You've done so well
I no longer have to cover.

But I found deceit,
I found something much more
than your battle before.
You look into my eyes,
You find it so easy to lie.
You tell me I've always been the one,
Our vows you broke and still
you're not done.

You think you can hide
Your indescretions from me
You think you can have
Your tainted fantasies.
No concern
No regard for me.

I tried to love you
The best I could.
I did what any wife would.
I stayed by your side
When no one else would.

This is my thanks?
This is your love?
I gave you all I had
You never were interested
You never really cared.

You've really done it
with this.
There is no repair.
Whatever I thought,
it was never this.
You betrayed me and you don't even know
you've been caught.

I've always known
What one day I'd have to do.
What you've done,
you've given me an out
a reason to leave
with this I have no doubt.

It never once crossed my mind
this would happen
this could be
this is what
you would do to me.
You trample my trust
You follow your lust.

It's not love you seek,
It's not love you want.
What you want,
You want discreet.

I can walk away
There's really nothing else
to say
There's nothing you can do
to make me stay.

No hard feelings,
No hate
Just a sadness
Just a clean break.
