Til Then

By: Stacie Xiong

You only want me
when your friends are gone
You yell and tell me
I am always wrong

Many nights I've waited for
you to come home
And when you do
you are never alone

I tell you I love you
and you say the same
I know you're lying
but there's only you to blame

You get angry whenever I ask you
And you say none of what I say is true
I'm hurting so much
deep down inside

I'm a fool for thinking
you are on my side
I wish there was someone
I could talk to

Someone who understands
what I'm going through
I've been with you for a long time
And in my heart

you'll always be mine
But until I know
if you truly love me
What I have to do now
...is set you free.
