Boundary Lines

Your gifts don't
Buy back my affections
Respect not reciprocated
Won't be given
Tired of your deceit
And manipulation
And the false
External presentation
Mmm I bet you hate
How the control
Mmm isn't in
Your grasp anymore
Mmm I'm not about playing
In your charade
Yeah I guess to you
I'm a renegade

You don't accept me
And that's fine
We'll just be putting up more Boundary lines
I know it will come off
A little unkind
That I'm not bowing down
To your shrine

I know for you it's hard to resist
To go behind my back
With whatever you wish
About how I failed your expectations
And how I'm not meeting
Your self obligations
Truth is I care less
About your frustrations
When you try to mold me
In your aspirations
And try to force on my life
Your regulations
And when I showed you the real me
I saw your hesitation

Don't care to experience altercations
With any more of your invitations
I care more about my
Nervous system regulations
Done with your
Narcissistic vibrations

All of your inaccurate allegations
My life choices aren't up for Negotiations
I see your bounding lack of Transformations
We'll pray for you to have
Healing revelations

Cause honestly I don't want
To have to make these limitations
Hope for the future to hold
Healthier adaptations
But for now I'm stepping back
From your locations
And really it's a bummer that this Doesn't fit well right now
But tearing me down to fix
Your internal combustion
Is no longer something that I allow
