Where's My Warmth?

Walk home, throw my jacket on my bed

sigh in frustration, and put my hands on my head

This depressions is too much, my mind wants me dead

My body's gone cold, but I act so well

That you wouldn't even know...

The new guy i'm with doesn't even love me

heck... i suppose it's very easy to see

He wants sex but I want commitment

and it seems to me that i'll never feel warmth again.

Mulitple layers, add a blanket or two

but i'm still shivering an theres nothing you can do

I know one day that this will all end

But until then I can only wish for the best

My grades are failing, i'm emotionally unstable

I give into pressure 'cause he doesnt take no for an answer.

I'm emotionally abused and he's the prevailer...
