Rough Love

Pullin' teeth
Straight out of my mouth reeks
Of insecurities
You poured into me
If these walls talked
They'd tell you to stop
Stop with your murdering
Of my dignity
Now the other boys wanted was
To gaze in my eyes
Now your sick little brain crave was
To see me cry
Look at me
What have I become?
I'm just a toy
You played and destroyed
What is love?
Does it push and shove?
Does it haunt you?
Make you feel like a fool?
Now the other boys left me 'cause
I wasn't good enough
Now I'm stuck with these nightmares of me
Accepting rough love
Every tear that falls from me
Is the last one you will see
Tell myself this all the time
I don't know what changes my mind
Now the other boys wanted was
To gaze in my eyes
Now your sick little brain crave was
To see me cry
Now the other boys left me cause
I wasn't good enough
Now I'm stuck with these nightmares of me
Accepting rough love
