Broken Home

These walls are closing in 
the yelling is getting worse 
always running through my head 
are these thoughts of divorce 
I don't know how long I can take it 
I don't know how long I can last 
every time we argue 
you want to talk about the past 
I am trying to stay calm 
I am trying to give you a break 
but if this fighting continues 
I'll leave for both our sake 
I am desperately confused 
I am frightened and alone 
even when we're together 
this house just isn't our home 
One minute you're happy 
the next madder then hell 
I'm afraid to move or breath 
Your reaction I just can't tell
