True Love Is Suicide
I'm risking my heart.
I'm risking my soul.
I'm risking my very sanity
On your heart alone.
Am I making a mistake?
I don't want to know.
Because being in love
Is being numb
To all the risks you're taking.
I won't know if I was stupid
Until I'm already hurting.
And I'll burn your pictures,
And I'll curse you're very name.
But I can only blame me.
Love is a blindfold,
Letting us be momentarily blind
To the warning signs in front of us.
At least until the wall is torn down.
Then we hurt and we cry,
And we ask ourselves why
We let ourselves love in the first place.
But there is no answer.
I think we do it for the numbness
And the exhiliration.
Because that is what makes
All the hurt and pain worth it,
So that we risk doing it again...
