For the first time in so long I was happy,
Then you had to take it all away from me.
The pain in my heart, it is not because of him.
The tears in my eyes, they are not out of pain.
Frustration and anger have made my light dim.
Why have you done this, you had nothing to gain!
I understand it's from a place of love,
But I cannot see how tearing him away...
I cannot see how that will ever help,
It never has, and that won't just change one day,
I cannot see your logic, nor can the Broken Dove.
For years I have sat in silence as you go into attack,
For months I have said nothing as you light a raging fire,
For weeks I have wanted nothing more than to fight back,
For days I have been choking back the words of hurt and desire.
I'm tired of being hurt and you always dragging me down,
I'm sick of being banged and battered and pushed around,
I'm tired of not being able to lift myself off the ground.
One day I will finally be wild and free,
One day, I will be able to finally just be me.
I will have him back to once again call mine.
