Dagger

You’re the kind of man
Who does all that he can
To make a girl feel small
You can hardly wait
To point out my mistakes
Revealing every flaw
I don’t think that I can even call that love anymore

Your love is like a dagger
It makes a jagged scar
And it can be a hazard
To a fragile heart
And trying to stop the hurt
Is the only thing that matters
I can’t numb the pain
I’m broken and ashamed
Your love is like a dagger

Love is not unkind
It can’t be confined
It won’t come when you call
Like a tender seed
That’s planted in the spring
And flowers in the fall
I won’t be there when regret
Comes knocking on your door
				
Your love is like a dagger
It feels cold to the touch
Leaving everything in tatters
I never hurt so much 
But time can heal the wounds
In a heart that has been shattered
I’m worth more than your scorn
I don’t need you anymore
Your love is like a dagger

time can heal the wounds
In a heart that has been shattered
Someday there’ll be laughter
And happy ever after
And no more daggers

					
I’m worth more than your scorn
I don’t need you anymore
			
Your love is like a dagger
