Pavlove


I cannot keep my feet on the ground

you pick me up and throw me down

I'll gladly take the contusions 'til I'm dead

Oh, how for you my heart bled

 

One-sided love and starry nights

only you can make me feel alive

But it's you who brings me back down again

Your love fuels my pain

 

Deluded reality poisoned my head

when your smiles became a promise

And your goodbyes promised dread

Oh, the tragic love that goes unsaid

 

Sharp voices fall on muffled ears

I'll sing sorrow for you until the abrasions make hearts on my skin

It's okay 'cause I've been wearing it around for awhile

Sometimes I wonder if you bother to read 

the message board that is me

 

But we are a Venn diagram of love

slowly merging into one

you cna make my mind beat

Will you let inertia pull you away from me?
