C/R/Y

Like a cash register my heart has been opened and shut
Certain events in my life I still can't get past 
I can't quite get a handle on this love thing 
I guess it's just my luck 
But it's ok
Sometimes friends don't understand
I feel like I'm alone in this madness 
Nobody to hands me tissues 
I'm left alone to deal with these issues 
Sometimes I wonder if there is something 
wrong with me.
With my inability to love. 
All I do is feel bad inside 
    & C/R/Y
