MY WORLD

You ask too much of me

 

That I should change my world for you

 

And be what you want me to be -

 

What would I do if my dreams fell through?

 

You know I'd meet you halfway

 

If only you would do the same

 

But everything I do or say

 

Seems to end up causing pain

 

 

You're tearing my world apart like you would a page

 

Lines on the paper becoming the bars of a cage

 

The ink with which my life is written

 

   is running like my tears

 

As you crumple me up and throw me away -

 

   alone with all my fears.
