"If I could turn back time"
People are mean when there upset
Sometimes expect people to say something they don't mean
It happens
Couples fight
She tells her man of ten years she can't stand him no more and he tells her to die
He knows that wasn't right
A few mornings later the husband wants to do something nice for his wife
An ongoing conflict every night repeats for a couple of weeks so he sleeps on the loveseat
In sync
With her melancholy of madness that has made her stay in thier bedroom for so long
He sits at the bottom of the stairs wondering what's wrong
Thinking maybe then, If he begins making some flapjacks and bacon
It will start creating a reason for sure
To present her with breakfast in bed
Softly knocking on thier door
It creeks ajar, she seems to be snoozing real hard
Next to the dresser he finds a glass of wine and an empty bottle of Xanax bars
He creeps closer to give her a shake, she won't wake
As a matter of fact she won't breath
The husband spills a trace of pancake on her face cause she won't eat
"Respond! Come on!"
Becoming more afraid as she just lays
Maby she's still mad and wants him to just go away
Pleading for his spouse to stop acting this way
Repeated apologizes for the way he behaved
Who's to blame? And why is his wife eternally ignoring him for the rest of his life?
Didn't expect her to do what he said
Regretting, he's replaying the reckless over reaction in his head
Going head to head, playing head games with himself he can't even win.....
That's when he decides to jump out the second story window head first, so he can join her again.
