Go Quietly
When I was a teen I loved a man,
Who was everything to me.
But he turned around and he broke my heart
And that put an end to me.
I had to tell him what he'd done
I had to tell him how it feels.
He didn't want me to do that
He wanted me to go,
''quietly.''
And when I was twenty three,
I loved another man, you see.
And me and him lived in a house
for years, quite happily.
But soon he turned abusive,
So I told police and family
He didn't want me to do that
He wanted me to go,
''quietly''.
And when I was twenty seven
I loved a different man, who'd be
The nicest guy to everyone
But never that nice to me
And when he got me pregnant
He said it was something I couldn't keep.
Yet he didn't want to support me
He wanted me to go,
''quietly''.
And recently, I knew a man
Who'd call and text all day
And tell me I was the one for him
And how much he missed me
when i was away
So when suddenly I didn't hear from him
I knew he'd lost interest in me
He didn't want to admit it.
He wanted me to go
''Quietly''.
But instead I did as I've always done
And called his little bluff-
Cause if a man can't give me honesty
Then I stop giving a fuck!
