you made this bed

by Maria Francesca

I want to be safe with your arms around me
I want to be innocent the way you found me
I want to be tusting
I want to be true
I want to be back in love with you
I want to come home but I'd rather be dead
and you may think I'm bitter
but you made this bed

I want to see a mirror and like who's in it
I want to be happy for just a minute
I want to burn the book -
rip out this page
I want to get free from all this rage
I want to stop the screaming in my head
so stay the hell away from me -
you made this bed

I love, love, love that first stanza. Just sums up so much so well.

Dittoing Gabe; absolutely positively something every woman has felt if she's ever loved. Genius.
