You claimed to love me
more than you ever loved before
but all you meant
was that you want to be adored
Have you ever seen
my smile or my nightly tears
have you ever heard
the stories of my heart?
Have you ever cared
for my dreams and fears
have you ever shared
the songs I want to hear?
You said you really loved me
but all you ever did
was put me like a fancy cake
in a feeble chancy cage
Have you ever listened
to the words I mean
Have you ever considered
that I am a human being?
You said you want me
more than all the others
But all you meant was
you need my home as rest
