We exchange empty stares
Full of feelings still felt
By both of us, but kept
Hid deep inside thinking
It'll make the pain go away

When you speak, the listener understands you. When you write, the reader understands themselves.

Sweet addiction, baby
There's a rehab for every kind
Lay your head down, baby
Let me give you peace of mind

I wish I would have met you when I was seventeen,
before I seen the things that I seen,
before I learned to look behind the screen.
I think we could have had a good time.

Simply shooting the word love from your mouth like gunfire across a battlefield proves nothing. Love is expressed in actions. The word alone is utterly useless and is just another string of letters in the English language. Words have absolutely no meaning until we give one to them through our behavior and animate them by utilizing our human nature and creativity. The feeling of love exists at the core of our very beings - it's natural, and it's what we instinctively long for.

My eyes didn't close
And my mind was screaming
The weight of it all

Something inside has died and I can't hide and I just can't fake it
