Tell Me Where Your Love Lies

He made you feel so safe 
Wrapped up in his embrace 
You felt the butterflies inside
And your heart began to race

But you were just a stupid girl 
Refusing to see his flaws 
You didn’t even comprehend 
While he slowly sank his claws

He told you that he loved you 
And you thought you loved him too
But you stupid, foolish, little girl 
None of those things were true 

He held you tight, you did the same 
You held his body close 
You thought he’d take away your pain
Stupid girl, you should have known 

All he wanted was to cause more pain 
And keep you in the dark 
He let you sit out in the rain 
While he ripped apart your heart 

He cut you to the bone with words
You tried to ignore his lies
You stupid, fucking, needy girl 
You saw it in his eyes 

He didn’t care one bit at all 
He wanted you filled with fear
He made you feel so weak and small 
Too much for you to bear 

You closed your eyes and ignored the pain 
Letting him win again 
Living in his world of rage 
You hid it all within 

Stupid girl you were naive and dumb 
You told yourself he’d change 
He took your soul and made you numb 
Running through his endless maze 

No comfort from the fear he caused 
You let yourself be scared 
He gained more power over you 
Yet you still believed he cared 

You let him take it all away 
Every thing you had inside 
You kneeled, you begged, you even prayed 
While inside you slowly died

He wrapped you tight in his embrace 
An overbearing hug
He put his hand over your eyes 
And told you it was love.
