a new song

Raine Wynd

i built my dreams around you
when you said you'd be there for me like a bon jovi song
i was sure it was a promise made true
you brought me the mounds of bills
when you said you couldn't find a job
and i believed it wasn't for a lack of skills

we made my apartment our home
while you went to graduate school on money we didn't have
i got another job answering phones
and we stopped going out on dates
while you researched and wrote your thesis
and i tried to understand what that was all about

now you look at me in confusion
when i tell you i'm tired of hearing you rage about your disappointments
you were sure that i'd always be there for you
you think i'm just overstressed and imagining things
when i say we have more problems than late caterers
i think it's time you sang a new song
