They build a barrier
They shouldn't know
But try as I might
I let it show
He forgets
Or acts the same
As before we happened
Before we came
To be so close
Not close enough
Or I would have consented
It's been more tough
To let him go
When damage was caused
Blaming alcohol
I wish he'd paused 
To read my tears
But soon I'll see
How permanent a mark
He made on me
