Today
As I lay
between the comfort of my sheets
I realize one thing
My heart is incomplete
between the break-ups, make-ups,
and cake-up I apply every morning to impress you
I realize nothing is working
I realize I’m wasting time
I am not in that perfect state of mind anymore that you manipulate
Even when I’m all alone, you’re all that's running through my head.
Please let me out of your loop hole
that confuses even the brunette girls
You say love
As if it's a piece of candy
Maybe one-day people will understand
You give when you need
You take when you want
You don't think about anyone else
It's a parasitic relationship when you're the only one who benefits
