we promised to always put us first
but life happens, we come second to work making time to spend time is stress communication is less and less sacrifice comes at a cost when these conflicts are not resolved but i’m too far in for our love to grow cold we’re working against us half is never a whole don’t we deserve that? don’t we? don’t we? don’t we deserve that? don’t we? don’t we? just a little more love, a little more attention a little more us, a little more convincing don’t we deserve that? don’t we, don’t we deserve that? we deserve that i can easily throw in the towel pack up my bags and just walk out now we always argue ‘bout this and that think love is lost, can we get that back? would be so easy to just let us go turn my back on everything i know, but my heart is unsettled, mind on overload i’m a war within fighting for us the least i owe don’t we deserve that? don’t we? don’t we? don’t we deserve that? don’t we? don’t we? just a little more love, a little more attention a little more us, a little more convincing don’t we deserve that? don’t we, don’t we deserve that? we deserve that truth is… love isn’t easy, it’s difficult for certain anything worth having involves work, and we’re too far in to let our love grow cold can’t be against us half is never a whole let love overpower us mind, body, and soul i need you in my life fighting for us the least we owe yes, we deserve that yes, yes, yes yes, we deserve that yes we, yes we yes, we deserve that we deserve that …at least that.
