Closure



I ain't playing games no more,
My heart's finally closing its door,
Protecting what's left at the core,
While picking up pieces off the floor,
CUZ all you did was make love a chore,
And from the pain, I'm just too sore,
For a new start it's what's in store,
CUZ you didn't fight your mind's war,
And gave up everything that I adore,
Because all you wanted was to be a whore.
