Reasons

The tears well up
But I’m too afraid to release them
How do I get them to stop?
Then I hear you scream my name.

Blow by blow I take it in
My two hands, my only protection
Trying to figure out what it all means
I hope you got your satisfaction

Why do I deserve this?
I’m not a bad person, I truly am
If wishes came true, I’d make a wish
Does this make you more of a man?

If this my fault, is it because of me
I spend hours in teary torment
Am I to blame for what has just been
Should I just be thankful for everything else and be content

Why do I pay for someone’s lunacy?
Why do I have to deal with such humiliation?
I guess I should be happy to some degree
But will I ever know the reason ?
