Stuck in Between

by Alex Penuelas   Jul 25, 2017


If you go through lovers
like you go through shoes,
Should I give it a shot
Only to end up singing the blues?

If you kiss every boy
Like they're nothing but an
Expendable toy,
Will my heart be safe?
Or is this all part of your cruel ploy?

One day you say
You love me,
The next I'm left on seen,
Then I see you with another man,
And I'm just stuck in between.

How do you
Expect me
To believe you
when you tell me
that I'm your
"one and only?"

When you use all of
the promises you break
As lyrics for the new
False story that you'll make?

Will you ever come clean with Me?

Would you ever come clean with me?

Because I hate
Being stuck
In between.

You kiss me on my lips
And tell me that you're sorry,
But you and I both know
That you're just waiting from a
Text from somebody

That you just met
The other day,
Who touched your heart
With the things that he did say,

And once I leave,
I best believe,
You'll invite him over
To sleep with you
Under your sheets.

How do you
Expect me
To believe you
when you tell me
that I'm your
"one and only?"

When you use all of
the promises you break
As lyrics for the new
False story that you'll make?

Will you ever come clean with Me?

Would you ever come clean with me?

Because I hate
Being stuck
In between.

    This is hard-hitting, sad when it happens to you...love the repetition in this one, it flowed so well.

    Alex, it's hard to be in a relationship with someone who is not really in the same relationship with you. I really liked how you formatted this and not wanting to be stuck in-between. Well done-
