We go through the same moves every day
Like two robots
I feel like I'm your habit
Nothing more
Nothing less
No movement, no growth
Both spinning our wheels
Deeper and deeper into a rut
But what do you want from me?
You never talk to me
Not small talk, we're lover's for heaven's sake
Wasting our time with the same old grind
I'm too old to play let's pretend
Though I already am
Talk to me, really talk to me
Cry, scream, make me believe
That I am your love, your want, your need
Not some old pair of shoes, you can no longer use
I'm so tired of the same old same
I'm too old to be playing these games
Frankly, it's making me insane
Talk to me
Really talk to me

Yes, I know these feelings too. Sometimes the most difficult thing in a relationship is knowing just where you stand.
Thank you for taking the time to enter, and I wish you all the best.
