Love Fucks You Up

by Alexis-Ash

My dear, Love fucks you up I've seen it time and time again And still, I fail to understand Why we do this to ourselves For days We're in a constant craze Nothing else is on our minds But that one person That one stupid boy- Who walks all over you Who lies and cheats and truly, doesn't meet your needs He has you on your knees He won't set you on your feet But you won't leave No respect, just a bunch of bullshit you don't deserve But still Even though you see the dagger poised You leave your heart in his hands Because he has a beautiful tongue And his apologies are gold spun We lie to ourselves just as much as those good for nothing bastards lie to us A lie to justify every deceitful thing that slips past his lips Lies keep you company On those dark and lonely nights But a lie can never hide the truth forever And sooner or later We all have to admit That we've been blindsided by love, once again.
