she turns to me in agony
how could you say these things?
you know I don't deserve this
I'll turn away from the blame
though I know how much she
hates it when I try to leave
when loves not going the way I think it should be
but that's just me
she always knows the words to say
to hesitate any attempt at escape
she'll change my mind and I'll stick around
until I know that she's ok
if only for another day

Chorus

one down a million more to go
this is how we grow
showdown so draw your line and I'll draw mine
one down a million more to go
beats being alone


Verse 2

he looks at me like an enemy
how could you say these things?
I try to make you happy
he's never around
and he works 12 hours a day just to make ends meet
and he says he does it for me
when all I want is to hold the one I cherish the most
spend a little time alone
but he'll change my mind
as quick as a smile and the focus of his eyes
