Intoxicated Love
You offer me the glass
And at first I decide to pass
But your charm and sincerity
Began to get the best of me
And your wine went straight to my head
At first your love tasted sweet
But I couldn’t swallow your lies and deceit
I mistook love for intoxication
And was too drunk to see your true intentions
Yet I remember every word you said
You said you would give me paradise
But the cost was too great of a price
You convinced me forever you sought
So reluctantly your game I bought
Now my hopes and dreams are dead
The glass in my hand had shattered
And I lost everything that ever mattered
The cuts on my hand were long and deep
As I look for blood from my skin to seep
My heart was the only thing that bled
