I notice that in life many people stay in unhealthy relationships that they are unhappy with. This always made me wonder. So I wrote a story song about one such relationship...

When I See You Smile
By Ken Cifuentes

Chorus 1:
Let’s keep it a secret the way I fall to pieces in you.
When my world was falling apart, where on earth were you?
You say you understand me and know, what I’ve been through.
You then go to cut me apart and take what you can use

Pre-Chorus:
Our time has got a gun
(Maybe mom was right in saying I should show you the door)
Our time has got a gun
(And I can’t count the times I said I wouldn’t see you no more)

Chorus:
But I forget about your lies
And how you like watching me cry
Forget the guy you banged last night
When I see you smile
When I see you smile
I forget that you ignore
And treat me like I’m just your whore
Forget you scare me to my core
When I see you smile
When I see you smile

Verse 2:
It’s clear that you don’t care for me but don’t want to fee, you’rel lonely, that’s it
I guess I’m your emotional hostage, and it’s getting time to split
I think you and your trick in Chicago just might make a good fit.
That boy don’t love himself but he loves it when you treat him like shit.

Pre-Chorus:
Our time has got a gun
(Maybe mom was right in saying I should show you the door)
Our time has got a gun
(And I can’t count the times I said I wouldn’t see you no more)

Chorus:
But I forget about your lies
And how you like watching me cry
Forget the guy you banged last night
When I see you smile
When I see you smile
I forget that you ignore
And treat me like I’m just your whore
Forget you scare me to my core
When I see you smile
When I see you smile

I’m so sorry, Momma’ said she’d call me but she didn’t (X4)
