I Gave up on Love

Contributed by matariel on Wednesday, 6th May 2009 @ 09:06:29 PM in AEST
Topic: LostLove



Me and you
You released yourself to me, seeking also what I desired
Sadly enough, my eulogy is sung in a thousand hearts

I gave up
I was no-good, and I learned to accept that fact of life
You suffered from the same dark and plaguing pathos

I don't know
What is right, what is wrong, and what just gets by
But they say that love covers a multitude of sins

I love you
I said those painful words to you today from my heart
These words should be happy sounds, not a cry for help

But it's true
I do love you; but I do not love myself, no, I don't
I deserve to be treated cruelly; It's what I understand best

Me, myself
Before I was born, I thought life would be pleasant
But submersed in the ocean, I gave up on love

Desire
That's what became the object which I sought
But not now, no-- not now, I honestly desire love

I don't
No, I don't expect you to stand by while I rehabilitate myself
Continue onward; I've given up, but I just want you to know that

I love you
