Missed Fit - Show Me

You came to me with so much charm
How could you ever do me harm?
It really felt like the real deal
So I commit to how I feel
At first we seemed to be happy
Embraced shared domesticity
A house and kids, we built a home
We shared our lives and all we own
Did you ever?
Did you ever show me?
Just what life
Just what my life could be
Or did you?
Did you just want to control me?
And not set
Not set me free to be me
But soon enough things turn sour
You wanted to have all the power
I could no longer choose for myself
What was best for my own health
Then things took a further turn
Manipulation and Coercion
You robbed me of my self-esteem
You robbed me of my will to dream
But did you ever?
Did you ever show me?
Just what life
Just what my life could be
Or did you?
Did you just try to control me?
And not ever let me be
Be free to be me
You tried
You tried to own me
And you made me
So very, very lonely
I felt helpless
I felt hopeless
Just existing
But not living with focus
