Why Do You Take It Out On Me

Is there something wrong

in the way I look

Am I the reason why

you've pegged me with your hook

and left me here to die.

~

I just want to understand

as I'm filled with fears

Feelings that I'm the one to blame

for the blood you spill like tears

while leaving me to the flame.

~

Why do you take it out on me

when I come to you as a dove

Are your pains so blinding

that you don't see

you're slowly killing all of my love

for you.

~

You yell go away

I can't stand you so

My eyes well up with tears

but you don't see them flow

as they have for many years.

~

I just want to understand

hate is all you've shown

When really you're the one to blame

for the one I have never known

as you curse their very name.

~

Why do you take it out on me

when I come to you as a dove

Are your pains so blinding

that you don't see

you're slowly killing all of my love

for you.
