The fear of loss

The fear of debt

You use my fears to make your threat,

 

Pressure me to do what you won't,

To do what I'd never choose to (still don't)...

 

And yet I have to,

And yet I must,

And all of this after you told me to trust...

 

I want my work & my education,

These are my sanity; my medication,

 

I want this ugliness over (forgotten)...

I don't want to know that your love has grown rotten.
