Scrape

That sound at the window I know it too well
she's hungry for more of you but won't ring the bell
I hear her scraping at your door again
scratching, clawing --she wants to break in
And if you so much as peer over the ledge
she will forever remain a wedge:
Unstoppable, permanent, destructive bitch
wanting you to cure her insatiable itch
She made her choice and once chance is enough
but these aftershocks and waiting rooms are lonely and tough
like the leather on your shoes that you want to wear forever
but the next time it rains they won't outlast the weather
Her control over you is one part of love I can't give
It's fueled by selfish greed and I will not live
in fear worrying about the things I don't know
Did she contact you again? Will you stay or go?
Between our hearts and hidden caves we reside
among the special places we try to hide

And my love, I really don't understand why

between trust and truth --you still choose to lie

when I adore you so much with a love so deep

Secrets between us will definitely keep

hurting our chances of real happiness

like being free from fears and constant stress

She will find the one way through your weakening door

and I will disappear to an isolated shore

where waiting and hope are demons in company

reminding me of all that I gave you --she took from me
But I hear her pounding on the door again
She's getting louder and stronger
Please.  Do not let her in.
She's using them to hurt you
they will be fine
But you only have one life

one heart and one soul
and so little time...
I pray to God everyday
you will not let her win....
If you let your guard down even slightly
it will be the end
