All Locked Up

Maybe I ask too much
Maybe I want too much
Maybe I expected too much

I wanted you to be proud of me
I wanted you to walk with me
I wanted you to hold my hand
And maybe once in awhile
Maybe I wanted you to kiss me
Or at least maybe a hug

I thought you would wear your ring
I thought you would be proud of it
I thought you weren't scared of people knowing
Maybe I was wrong

I expected to be the only one
I assumed that you had choosen
I dreamt of a perfect life together
I wanted people to see that we were in love
Maybe it was, infact, all a dream

I wanted her letters to you to stop
Her poetry to stop
I wanted you to tell her that you love me
I wanted her to know that you were happy
Happy with me
I thought that she would respect me
And the fact that you are my husband
Maybe she does
Maybe she doesn't
The fact is that she still calls herself "your girl"

I thought that she would stop wearing your ring
But why should she
You don't wear yours

I don't know
But I feel wrong
I feel like I am not enough
I feel like a secret
I feel like a secret all locked up
