Dazed
Hit in the face with love so strong,
even though so many said it was wrong,
it put me into a daze
that made everything else seem like a haze
but is this love so true,
Is this the love spoken by so many of you?
Is this true or is it a lie?
I try to decipher it but no matter how hard I try
I fear that this is just another time
where you cut open my wounds and sprinkle them with lime,
adding insult to injury just one more time
I'll smile and laugh and tell you I'm fine
until I break down, down to my core
and wonder where the armor I wore
to protect myself from this has disappeared
and once the dust has cleared,
I'll be anew once again
as I stand crying, in the pouring rain
