How dare you say that my behavior's unacceptable
So condescending, unnecessarily critical
I have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step cause if I do you'll need a miracle

You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
This Double Vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
Not fit to funkin' tread the ground that I am walking on

When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
”There's no way we're gonna give up!”
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there ‘cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there ‘cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better you never listened to what I've said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did

When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
”There's no way we're gonna give up!”
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there ‘cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there ‘cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

Does it kill
Does it burn
Is it painful to learn
That it's me that has all the control

Does it thrill
Does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold

When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
”There's no way we're gonna give up!”
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there ‘cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there ‘cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

I fell to the ground, gasping uncontrollably. You stood over me, anger flashing in your blue eyes.

“I saw you, Charlie!” you spat my name as if it were a disease, you always had. “How can I trust you?”

“You can, Jay!” I said weakly, that gained me a kick in the ribs. I tried again, “I could never love anyone except you!”

“I’m not an idiot!” you whispered, crouching down beside me and grabbing my chin to make me look at you. “And I don’t like that you think I am!” You kissed me firmly on the lips then shoved me away. As I hit the ground, a jolt of pain went up my arm.

“Jay…”

“There was no emotion in that!” you snapped. “No love! You obviously can’t love me as much as you say!”

“But-!”

“Forget it!” you stood up again, anger radiating from you. This’ why I feared you James! You weren’t in control! Or maybe you were… But you suddenly changed! One moment you were gentle, loving, loyal, and the next you’re beating me up! Can I at least get some kind of warning?

“I’m sick of it!”

Had I said that out loud? When your eyes narrowed dangerously, I assumed I had.

“Pardon?”

Your words were cold, but for some reason they gave me confidence.

“I’m sick of this Jay! I’m sick of your fucked-up, split personality that you don’t even seem to know about! I’m sick of you hurting me for no reason! I’m sick of it!” I stood up, shaking uncontrollably. “I can’t go on like this!”

“So you’re walking out on me?”

I slowly walked over to the door; you made no move to stop me. I opened it.

“Yes…” I murmured, before stepping out into the night.
