Tethered

Smitten from the start
You tethered him to your heart
Warned but undeterred
You clung to his every word

Ignored the warning signs
And now you're paying the price
Your make-up doesn't hide
The damage deep inside

The same lame excuses
The cuts and the bruises you hide
Don't take this forever
So cut loose this tether tonight
But you'll never leave him
He's kissed and forgiven each time

Obsessed but love is blind
He tethered you to his mind
Fabricating lies
There's no tears left to cry

The same lame excuses
The cuts and the bruises you hide
Don't take this forever
So sever this tether tonight
But you'll never leave him
He's kissed and forgiven each time

Take this outstretched hand
Be strong and take a stand
Don't let the fear control you anymore

Your eyes fixed on the door
Can't take this anymore
What lies the other side
Do you run or do you hide

The same lame excuses
The cuts and the bruises you hide
Don't take this forever
So sever this tether tonight
But you'll never leave him
He's kissed and forgiven each time
