MY LOVE STANDS AND TAKES IT.

 

 

Self-pity is the hardest pain

The endless cigarette in the pouring rain

Repeating the arguments in the head

All the stupid words we both said.

 

The guilty don’t have the heart for it

Their love is on the other sleeve and it doesn’t fit

Desperate for what could have been in a chaotic mind

Searching for what we know we can’t find.

 

Wanting to hurt you as much as I hurt

To teach you there’s a far deeper cut…

It’s love that stands and takes it

Withering hope never breaks it

My love stands and takes it.

 

The burning of an effigy

Continuous wondering you’re no good for me

The who has done it with love has done it in

I easily see there’s no way to win.
