#becauseiloveyou
It is not easy to say the words
but still we do it and expect nothing in return
when we don't want to be alone
we say i love you and feel at home
but when the tears run down our faces
we say i love you and find comfort in our own embraces
because i love you i stay up at night
because i love you i feel like im losing every fight
though we mean what we say
i have this feeling that we're never going to be okay
i even treat you with love every step of the way
yet you look back and question every word that i say
because i love you i deal with the pain
even though it feels like im locked up with a ball and a chain
so tell me who's the one that has something to gain
sometimes love is a strong word
but when we say it we feel so alive
even with the neglect and evil in our eyes
and because of this we tell ourselves that we will forever be fine
hopefully we have enough time
because i love you'll always be mine
