Your heart is not an object you can give away
                                                            ­                Metaphysical
                                  ­                                                                 ­                                         Its something you've forgotten
                                                       ­                                                                 ­ Analytical
                                                    ­                                                                 ­                         It's all in your head
                                                            ­                                                                 ­        Psychological

                                                ­                                                                 ­                             Love is just spontaneous
                                                     ­                                                                 ­            Chemical reactions in your mind
                                                            ­                                                            To future the human race
                                                            ­                                                                 ­                                    evolution
                                                     ­                                                                 ­                    It's natural selection
                                                       ­                                                                 ­ And a probable, statistical truth
                                                           ­                                                                 ­                          You'll find someone you
                                                             ­                                                                 ­                         Relate to
                                                              ­                                                                 ­         Serotonin pumps
                                                           ­                                                                 ­                          Testosterone too
                                                             ­                                                   Then oxytocin to complete the brew
                                                            ­                                                                 ­                  And you fall in love
                                                            ­                                                                 ­        Glazed eyes will connect
                                                         ­                                                                 ­                            Start writing poems about
How she's so perfect

But then my friend
If this were true
Why does my heart yearn for you
Why do i have sleepless nights
This isnt right
If these were chemicals in my mind
Its been a year
Surely they'd disappear..
