Because I Love You, I Left
He played you like piano keys but you loved the melody it made
Clash

Clash
But those didn’t matter to you because, just like the sustain, it wouldn’t last.
Even if some nights were out of tune you knew it could be repaired
But would it?
Some nights he would strike the chords a little too hard, bruising the keys, twisting the tunes
Still, you were mesmerized by the vast ocean of notes cascading through your ears, unaware of the chorus that was drowning your words
No other sound could persuade you like his could
Or maybe it was the way he hit the keys so hard that it frightened you too much to leave
Soon you’ll be deafened from the strain and have no choice to be part of the chorus, singing words that aren’t your own
Oh you tone deaf girl, blissfully ignorant and soon to be just another used instrument
