The love runs deep


The love runs deep,

Cuts me,

Breaks me,

Apparently you never cared,

I don’t know what to believe,

I know I am a broken man,

But I embrace myself,

I have not been unfaithful,

My eyes only for you,

Killing me,

I paint my canvas,

And I look at you,

You paint your canvas,

And look at your friends,

You never cared,

So why do I?,

I care,

Because I love you,

Against all odds,

You want me to burn,

Fair enough,

I would burn for you,

I want you to live,

And have a great one,

No matter how much,

You hurt me,

I will always love,

And never be loved,

I live fast,

But I am a good man,

You know I care,

You know I put it all the line,

When did it ever make a difference to you?
