Bitten By Your Love

You have your demons and so do I
You may be able to but from them I can't any longer hide
All what I feel inside
The passion, pain, intensity, and emotions will not subside
Going through this everyday mundane
It's enough to drive even the most rational person insane
Why is it that you keep holding on tightly too
Every woman that always seems to end up hurting you
Yet here I am standing here with my heart and soul for you bleeding
And there you go again you keep on from me fleeing
Is it easier to be hurt then to love someone like me
Is it easier for you to turn away and close your eyes then it is to keep them open and clearly 
see
I'm the one right in front of you and never again will I just turn and leave
There is a solid and concrete reason as to which you and I always seem to come back to 
each other again
Only this time we each have known how we have grown, are older and wiser and just where 
we have been
Just stop and let me back in let me try to once more explain
Unlike all the others I never gave you my heart and my soul in vain
You have always kept them safe and held on tightly to that key for all these years
You never could let go of me either and I never wanted to get them back no matter if there 
were many tears
Quit running away from me and take the time in me to embrace
You could once again give to me your leather and I can give you my lace
I can't help myself from being in this state
But yet you know damn well in line for you is where I will continue to wait
No matter just how long it takes
Or how my heart and soul forsakes
You are my heaven on earth sent to me from up above
And there's no turning back or walking away anymore when not since I've realized I've been 
bitten by your love
