Why can't you love me...

Why can’t you just love me for me…?

Why does everything have to end in a fight…?

Why can’t you trust me?

When all I try to do is love you

Why can’t you love me…?

Is that too hard to do?

When I’m your own daughter

All you try to do is slaughter my emotions

Why can’t you love me… and forget my past

Is that too hard to ask

Why can’t you love me…?

 When I try to be true?

When all I try to do is please you

Why can’t you love me…?

What if I just give up?

I think I’m just tired of trying

I’m tired of crying

Why can’t you love me…?

 I think I’m just done with love

Because you took it right out of me
