If this wasn't love Why am I immortalising your name I just wanted you to leave your initials on my heart And not release your poison in my veins Your scent on everything is driving me insane I couldn't stay in bed for months With you still stained on my sheets I found myself asleep on someone else's floor And when I kissed another's lips I always searched for something more In oceans of eyes I never found yours I thought I was just blinded by acid rain But every time I went to wipe you away All I had left of you was phantom pain
