the fight for you is all i've ever known

Remember that dark, cool night last year, in december?
We fought and swore and bickered all night, but that's not all I remember.
The look in your eyes when you told me " I'm sorry, this time I'll be true"
What you really meant was "Just forgive me so I can get back to hurting you"
I forgave you anyways not knowing what the consequences would be
then spring arrived and your heart was as hallow as a carved out tree.
Why did I let myself stumble, so carelessly and reckless
and why is that when summer came you gave me that gold neckless? 
You asked me to wear it everyday, thinking that I still cared,
but when i said i wouldn't wear it I knew you were not prepared.
Then fall rolled in and you saw me sitting all alone
you came in and gave me a hug, knowing I'd fall for the scent of your cologne.
Things seemed to have gotten better, you really had made a change,
but then it was winter again, and we were back to the same range
So in the spring don't expect to see me, I won't be by your side
because as this new season approaches I'll be getting off this painful ride.
