From A Man's Perspective

I just wanna be with you tonight I just wanna be with you I just wanna be with you tonight I just wanna be with you (I just wanna be with you tonight) (I just wanna be with you) (I just wanna be with you tonight) (I just wanna be with you) I thought we were forever, that's was a mistake You wrote it down in pencil, guess it got erased Drawin' on my weakness, look what you create A masterpiece of everything you taught yourself to hate I had to log off, your passwords changed You always tried to run, I wasn't down to chase Your trauma made you numb, I tried to give you faith You took my kindness and threw it right back in my face Ashamed to say I loved you, and it hurts me 'cause I actually tried Your truth was based off of lies Your love was conditional and mine Forgave you multiple times That's why I had to finally walk away It hurt me to leave, but was killin' me to stay The story of my life This chapter and page is gettin' ripped out and thrown in emotional flames To be honest I don't hate you, this my only way to grieve What you want isn't always what you need I remember days I'd beg, and I'd plead for you to just calm down and provide me with peace Your words used to hurt me, they would bring me to my knees Called me pathetic, trash, weak So, I got strong, got back on my feet Picked you up off the sidewalk, through you back to the streets I don't wanna talk about those times that you lied Don't wanna talk about those times that I cried Don't want to talk about those times you denied all the truths that I spewed that I knew deep inside The pressure I was feelin' that was right up to my neck The anxiety depression that was weighin' on my chest The constant allegations, the blatant disrespect The time that I lost, or the money that I spent I was goin' crazy, I was a shell of a man Trapped in your cage, lost in your maze Blinded by love, addicted to the pain The highs and the lows, the storm and the rain I started therapy to cope, because you drove me insane Gassed me right up, then emptied my tank So, don't you try to spin the block when you see I'm doin' great Or that I'm happy, or I got another woman in your place Because I gave you too many chances to understand That pain sounds different when it's comin' from a man We're not allowed to feel, be real, explain, express, and when we do, we lose the upper hand We only have value based on what we can provide I spoke your love language, you didn't understand mine You pushed me to the edge, played like you were blind And then you blamed all of your actions on your zodiac sign (I just wanna be with you tonight) never again I just wanna be with you I just wanna be with you tonight I just wanna be with you
