Trapped

I keep finding reasons to hold on
But he gave me a good reason to let go
He doesn't love me and he let me know
Trying not to let it show
That I'm hurt
Feel like dirt
But that's where we come from right?
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Heartbreak is a must
On my life's stage
This relationship is a page
To be torn out
From my book, burnt
But I keep coming back
Like a junkie on crack
I'm a fool and I know it
But I love him
And I show it
Wanna stop
But can't
Like a motorcycle with no brakes
I feel my heart race
Want it to stop
Wanna be free
But I'm trapped
Reason to go
ReasonS to stay
It's like a burning building
I'm trapped
In smoke
Starting to choke
Coughing, but I like it somehow
Cause I'm standing in the doorway
But I'm looking back
At the everlasting flame
Contemplating
Now there's rain
Or so hose
So I run
This time I don't look back
I'm free
Like a bird
But you know what?
At the end of it all
A bird must return to its nest...
