You Say You Love Me

You say you love me and you want me to stay,

But if you truly loved me,

wouldn't you want me to be pain free?

You say you love me,

But if you truly loved me,

wouldn't you want me to feel the peace I can't find here?

You say you love me,

But if you truly loved me,

wouldn't you want me to sleep without the nightmares?

You say you love me,

But if you truly loved me,

wouldn't you want me to be able to close my eyes

without seeing the terrifying events replayed over and over?

You say you love me,

But if you truly loved me,

Wouldn't you want my physical pain to be relieved forever?

You say you love me,

But if you truly loved me,

Wouldn't you be glad to know my arms will never again ache for another's embrace?

You say you love me,

But if you truly loved me,

Wouldn't you take comfort in knowing I'll never shed another tear again?

You say you love me,

But if you truly loved me,

Wouldn't you be happy to know my personal war has finally ended?

You say you love me,

But if you truly love me,

Can't you love me enough to let me go?
