Looking for love in all the wrong places

Cut out my heart

Lock it away

You touch my soul

Coax my broken spirit

Make me want to open up

Mistakes

Mistakes

You drive me to drink

Ups

Downs

Never trusting

The vault door was adjacent

But before it was too late

I recognized you for the thief you were

But…

You are Still you

And I am still your Fool

Breaking all my rules

To safe guard my heart

But around you…around anyone

I throw it

Just wanting someone to catch it

Someone to just hold it and cherish

I’ve held on

But…

It’s lonely

It’s empty

It’s tiring

Emptiness that I taught myself to cope with

Antisocial, only because I’m scared

My heart scars haven’t healed enough

I may never be whole

But even if I was

Who are you to waste my time

Who are you to say your mine

Then erase…

Erase the past

Eradicate our present

And decimate our future

Who are you to tell me that Love

Love…

Won’t come for me

Won’t it come for me?
