Abusive love

When you met him, you were lonely 

He hid his game, appeared softy 

At first, he was a gentleman, 

But quickly things started to change


He began controlling you, 

Playing on your insecurities 

There's nothing you can undo, 

But you wish you took the keys 


He has manipulated you, 

Made you think you weren't worthy, 

And you thought that it was true

His soul was darker than coffee 


He made you believe all kinds of things, 

Cut you off from others, cut your wings 

You didn't say "no" 'cause you were scared 

And for all that, you weren't prepared 


When he started hitting you 

With more than just words, 

You didn't know what to do 

With a voice that wouldn't be heard


To him, it was always your fault

You should have been put in a vault 

You asked for it, searched for it, 

So why would would you complain about it ? 


He took your dreams away, 

Humiliated you in the cruelest way

He says he's sorry now,

But don't buy in, don't bow 


Love's not supposed to hurt, 

But no one told you so 

Now the lessons are learnt, 

And all's left to do is go


Sure, it would be easier 

To fall right back into his arms, 

But you need to have the courage 

To choose happiness 


I'd like to see you hit the road 

With a guy who's not a fraud, 

Who only hits you with love,

Feels like he is from above 


You deserve the best, 

Like everyone else 

Convince yourself of that fact

And you will be alright
