Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song for a friend who was in a abusive/one sided relationship but was either afraid to or just unaware of the fact that she could just leave.

Song Description

A woman in an abusive/one-sided relationship that feels more like a crappy job than a relationship finally decides to 'quit'.

Lyrics

Verse one:

ooooh, I'm over here thinking,
Were you like this before the drinking?
And what caused me the most harm,
The pain in my heart or the bruises on my arm,

The work I put in, I feel robbed,
This relationship feels more like a job,
Then I found you had more than one employee,
When You said All your love was for me

Pre Hook:

(so) Don't call, don't write,
Stay out of my life,
This love is shit,
She can have it, I quit


Hook:

This is my letter of resignation,
While I've been at home waitin',
You've been out there
Being a man whore,

So I'm here filling out applications,
Packing, no hesitations,
Smiling as I'm leaving out the door.


Verse Two:

Wondering,
Why was I such a dummy?
How could I've been so blind,
To the abuse this whole time,

Underappreciated, no pay,
You were always out on vaca',
But made me feel like I was wrong,
So when you return, I'll be gone.


PRE HOOK:

HOOK:


BRIDGE:

...Doorway is a portal to freedom,
I realize now that I don't need ya,
I only stayed this long, I was afraid no one
Else would ever enlist Me with these references,

But with a resume like this, I will get by,
Things i'll accomplish, if i just try,
This relationship, you let die,
There's nothing to talk about, I've said 'bye'.


HOOK:
