His troubled blue eyes announced
the real story hidden under his roof
He wasn’t fairing well without me,
I softly stroked his stubbly proof
But he’s the one who told me to go,
emotionless and aloof
Blaming his ways on the Doctor’s diagnosis, the addictions from his youth
OCD! I’ve tried to figure its frustrating ways out like a sleuth
Back For Good, the lyrics he sweetly sings might be his truth
“Back For Good”
I guess now it’s time for me to give up
I feel it’s time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got you’re lipstick mark still on your coffee cup
Got a fist of pure emotion
Got a head of shattered dreams
Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now
Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn’t mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I’m wrong just tell me the song and I’ll sing it
You’ll be right and understood
Unaware but underlined I figured out this story
It wasn’t good
But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation you excelled at being free
Can’t you find a little room inside for me
Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn’t mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I’m wrong just tell me the song and I’ll sing it
You’ll be right and understood
And we’ll be together, this time is forever
We’ll be fighting and forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again
Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn’t mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I’m wrong just tell me the song and I’ll sing it
You’ll be right and understood

Untreated mental illness can make it near impossible to maintain a relationship. The healthy one usually winds up thinking it’s their fault for the failure. It’s not.

Yes this is true even with those who receive treatment and also choose to self medicate using other legal substances…
