You chastise me like I'm a small child
then wonder why I seem to shut down.
Have you not noticed that doesn't work with me
we just keep going around.
You say you don't want to loose your family
yet you keep pushing me further away.
You say you love me more than ever
but my love for you lays in decay.
You put me down every time we talk
I always end up in tears.
This has been going on long enough
at least the past couple years.
I try to build my self-esteem
but you always try to squash it.
Today I take a stand to you
and let you know I'm calling it quits.
I hate to see your name on my phone
can barely stand your voice.
So I'll tell you one more time
it's over and I've made my choice.
I can't stand your sarcasm
or the accusing look in your eyes.
Just the sound of your name
I am growing to despise.
Today I finally stand up
you'll no longer put me through hell.
I sit here before you
and tell you this is farewell.
Now get over it and move on
erase me from your mind.
I walk away right now
and leave you far behind.
Please tell me what you think
