Oh sweet girl, my love
You forgot it again
Can't you remember?
It's okay, my love
I know, it's hard
And it's too cold this December

I didn't forget, my love
I know, you're there
Your hands around my throat
Your whispers everywhere
Oh, just say
How would I forget?
When I'm still listening
To your poisoned threat?

It's not a threat, my love
You forgot it again
Can't you remember?
It's the truth, my love
And you now that it is
I'm just your only defender

Your unworthy of love
The people hate your voice
They will judge your look
And your every choice
I'm just protecting, don't you see?
Only with me, they'll let you be

You're not protecting, my love
You're killing me
Sewing up my mouth
And breaking my knee
Till I'm on the ground
Fighting my tears
Everyone hates me 
You taught me for years

That's right, my love,
But you forgot a part
Should I just make it clear?
The whispers aren't real, my love
And they never were
When it's been just me, I'm your fear
