Chasing Your Wrong Heart


man, you frustrate me

I swore you off

then find myself back again in your hands

standing in your presence

I wanted nothing more than an authentic connection

pulling me in like gravity

setting my axis off

 

I loathe you

I hate when you don’t call

and I cave

I reach out and make a fool of myself

 

HE is more loyal and worthy

HE has put his time into getting to know me

but I keep chasing your wrong heart

that will never fit right with mine

using flawed logic to get my point across

thinking you will transform into a gentlemen

over night

 

I’ve waited too long

I’ve prayed too much

 

I’m finally done believing that you’re any different
