he leaves my heart open for empty goodbyes
when he comes inside he tracks his pain through my heart
again & again
i clean up after his careless mess
with all the Kleenex and chocolates i can
my words cant touch him and neither can i
its as if I'm ran over countless times
by his slick words & uneven lies
that parallel my mind
size me and take its time
taking me away blow for blow
i duck i dodge i weve bu
in love's choke hold I'm stuck again
submission isn't my mission
but my tactics are working again
my competition are a million to one
to walk away would be pure hell to me
so fight it out i must
i must
