Just Can'T Seem To Get It Right

These words are hard to 

swallow tonight

Theres truth in all this insanity 

and I just can't seem to get it right.

Theres emptiness in your words

and a coldness in your touch with me

You interact differently towards me

and I feel it deep down

Don't say that you love me and kiss me that way

when all you really mean to say is 

'I care about you'

Love is totally different-

and I just can't seem to get it right

I'm lost and can't find it

Where am I going wrong?

Theres an emptiness about you when you're with me

Can someone please tell me why-

I just can't seem to get it right.
