It seems as if as soon as I clear a space something comes along and gets dumped in it 

Causing me to do more work just to get it clear again

Tired of feeling as if I’m not living life at my own pace 

Tired of seeing my time improve 

But still feeling as if I’m never going to win the race 

My life is my journey to make 

But there’s only so much I can take 

So ultimately I have to decide 

Will I sit and silence and learn to adjust or convince you to see my side 

I’m tired 

A whole year later and same old words

Both of us hoping to be heard 

Me feeling as if I have no voice 

Now I sit here 12 weeks along feeling as if I have no choice 

I refuse to sit here and tell myself that I have to adjust to something new 

Feeling as if I’m not able to  out what to do

How will we pay bills 

Whose going to help clean the house 

We are in this together 

We are real partners 

No more dealing with a spouse 

You’re right there’s been no progress 

Same old conversations 

I refuse to handle this like I handle past situations 

No more being silent and going with the flow

No more sprinting hoping that you’ll be happy with how fast I can go

This three legged race has gone as far as it can go . 

Feel free to run at your own pace 

Cause there is nothing more I can do than to step back and give you more space
