Love Taps


He is my love But he hurts me.. Brings me insecurity, Bashes my selfesteem And dirties my purity He is the man of my dreams But my love is muffled in screams That are coming from me.. The blacks and blues Should be enough Clues To leave em astray But my love Is the only thing that won't let me stray His fist to my face Shatters every dream I once had So sad I once loved this man The hate that was once love Set confusion in my soul Because if he loved me He couldn't be this cold Its not always this way There are brighter days But eventually it ends up With a bruise across my face Damn if love wasn't so capturing So imperfect So blind I would of left a thousand times He is my Dr.jekyl My Mr.hyde My romeo His juliet In modern times He says I deserve every bit Cause I'm too demanding And I stand there and talk sh*t But I don't know of anyone Even inhuman That should be treated like this Friends ask how could I Give my love to a monster Truly that's a question That I don't have an answer I know that I must put an end to this mess because.. I watch the news & read the papers I don't want to end up like the rest A victim of love Fallen through the cracks To the world Just another one of their stats...
