Our Little Compromise

Only if you keep me crazy
Will I keep you sane.
Shouldn't be too hard for you
To make me relive the pain
As I lay neurotic
You are out and about
Holding on to someone else
That I have no doubt.

Keeping your sanity close to me
Giving you what you need
Wishing the same in return
I thought we had agreed.
A compromise that was fair
A declaration that would last
Making us both stable mentally
Much unlike the past.

I am sitting on my cloud now
Wondering if the pain will die
Suddenly I hear your voice
And I ask you, "Why?"
Why do you keep me fake
When all you want is real
Get out of here, out of my life
And just forget our deal.
