What Is Love?
How can I manage to screw things up so badly?
All you did for me,
Everything you put into our relationship,
I took for granted.
Now you sit in the hospital staring at those four walls,
Crying about how badly I treated you.
You thought I was everything in a man turns out that I’m nothing
Turn off the lights and close your eyes,
The only way you can’t see me.
I’ve infected your life with nothing but lies.
How can anyone survive that trauma?
Those 4 months weren’t all lies.
I meant when I stared into your eyes and said I love you.
So I thought it was love.
But who truly knows what love is?
I may have touched another girl’s body,
Did sinful things,
But you turn back to the one who did that several times.
Not only a few times,
But I have but more than that.
Then you say he loved you more.
How can I justify that?
Turn off the lights and close your eyes,
The only way you can’t see me.
I’ve infected your life with nothing but lies.
How can anyone survive that trauma?
If you were going to get someone to end my life,
I’d prefer to do it myself,
That way no one needs to suffer besides me.
No need to go to jail for something I can do.
Let me close my eyes one last time and keep them close,
Never to see sunlight again,
Never to hurt anyone again,
Never to see you face and the memories that scar me.
