Hurt to Love


Love is nothing to me

But I want someone to make me a we

I feel like I'm stuck in the sea

But i am alone you see.

They say wait patiently it will come your way

But the longer I wait the blacker I get like a ashtray

In the inside I feel grey

But on the outside I just slay.

Whatever happen to love back in the day

This right here isn't the way

I feel alone but when I'm not, all I do is groan

He just wants me to moan

And feel on my breastbone

These are just the typically male hormones.

I've been so kind 

But I'm losing my mind

I questioned, is this really mankind

I think I just need to rewind.

I think I need to make a telephone call

Before I start a brawl

I'm so mad

But also glad.

I made the right choice

I had a new voice

Now I go to church

But is still on the search.

Respect is the key

The way to be free

I'm just gonna lay back and sip my tea

But atleast I'm not alone you see.
