When I Hated Him

In the silent parlor room

If I'd remember to

Keep it down for ya, like you asked me to

Did that hurt too much

Baby did it last long enough

It was fine for me

It was fine for me

I'll go dry off now

This stuff is sticky

It's a little hot in here dear

Can you turn up the air

And don't tell me that you want me to see you this way

If I were weaker

And you loved me

Would you still act this way

I'm sitting on the floor

And I don't feel no more

I'm not prepared to

And I don't dare to

It's so dark in here

And something smells like fear

Now you're sleeping

While I'm conceiving

I'll find my own way out

You'll find the letter

I'm a little weak but

You like that better

I don't think that you want to

See me this way

Cause I'd kill you

And I'd leave you

And never speak your name

And don't tell me that you want me to see you this way

If I were weaker

And you loved me

Would you still act this way

The roads are wet

And I can't remember your face

As I'm driving away in this, in this taxi cab

And the driver said

Are you sure you want to leave him

Don't I need to get these scars off my face

And I'm bleeding, not just in front of you

But in every single place

Don't you think that I want to see him in a different way

If he were weaker

And I still loved him

Maybe it wouldn't be this way
