The Time Dragon clock strikes ten,
He's late home from work again.
It doesn't come as a surprise,
As I sit alone at the dining table
Swirling my glass of red wine.
I let the cool liquid touch my lips
It's the only thing that has
Since the Time Dragon came.
He tells me his people need him,
They turn to him to solve their problems
But I need him too,
Do I no longer exist in his perfect world?
They call him wonderful
He's not wonderful
He has flaws just like anyone else.
I know what he's doing while I sit here alone
I can't have children, he's desperate for a family
Who am I to take that from him?
He's supposed to love me, hold me,
But I know he's off with another woman,
While I sit and rot in the damned house.
He'll come grovelling back to me
After one too many drinks
He'll pour his heart out to me
Tell me I'm too good for him
Tell me he's sorry for what he's done.
I know he'll do it time again,
Because I can't give him what he wants.
Yet still I take him back with open arms,
After all I am his wife.
And I would be out casted if I did not.
