Why do I do this to myself ?
I eat myself alive
It is all just a fantasy
How will I ever survive ?

If you could only see inside my brain
It can be a sad and scary place
You ask how you can help
Like helping me is a race
And whoever helps the most
Finishes in first place ...

I just wish everyone would understand
That sometimes people break
And sometimes I just need love
But I get what I can take

But the sad thing about reality is
We take what we think we deserve
We settle for the bad stuff
Which is completely obscured

People ask me why I do it
Ruin myself inside
I just can't come to fix myself
Believe me I have tried
You think I'm happy but you haven't seen
The hours in which I've cried
I thought we could do this hand in hand
With you right by my side
But I just can't stay awake my dear
Believe me I have tried
How much longer can I do this
My heart is truly fried
I will try and stay with you my dear
It's getting hard but just remember ...
I tried

Everyone creates this false image of love
Like it's so simple and easy
I would love to believe that
But I can't ...
Love is putting your life last
To them put someone else's first
When you willing to lay down your life
At any given moment
You will let yourself starve
So the one you love eats
Love is never taking advantage
Of the one you loves innocence
See love is not easy
But quite difficult ...

So many people are "ready to find love"
But not the troubles that come with it
They want a love that brings
Temporary happiness to the body
I want love that brings
Joy to my heart and soul
Not a physical love
But an emotional love
Not the love you see in movies
But the love that makes you feel
Like you star in your own movie
I don't want a temporary
Let me in your bed love
But a let's wait till marriage love
Not a fictional
And not a fake love
Kinda sappy
But original , unique
That makes people jealous
Kind of love
That amazing beautiful love that ...
Lasts forever
