Call Me Lost
If to love is to live
Then I'm lost
If to live is to love
Then I'm dead
My heart channelled at birth
Never to love
Or so I believe.
Never been lucky with love
So I am jinxed
Jinxed by what?
When I am selfish with my heart
How can I give my heart?
When it keeps me alive
How can I give my heart?
when it pumps my blood
Call me selfish
but I'm in control of my feelings
Call me heartless
but I do get to keep my heart
They say love engulfs your thoughts
but I need my thoughts
to keep me sane
They bet on loneliness to kill me
but it never really haunts me
because I find solace inthe bottle
Call me lost
but I definitely don't want to be found
