Love is a disease
It infects what you believe about yourself and the others you need
And love is not kind
It wonât smile and it wonât shine
It isnât there when you need it
You canât save it and you canât delete it
And love is cruel and unforgiving
And love is usually unwilling to give you back what youâve been building
It will scorch the earth just cos youâre tilling it
And like a cat youâve been petting for every day of every single week
But when you need it and when youâre feeling weak all it really wants to do is fall asleep
Because love is vicious and love is spiteful but love also just doesnât care
So you can fight it but when you strike at it itâll just vanish like it was never there
But believe me itâs still there
Not in your shoes or heart or hair
Cos iâve looked in all the obvious places and still havenât found it anywhere
But when i find it i will kill it
So that i can get on with my life
And regain composure of my posture and control of the thoughts in my own mind
Because love will break you apart
But now hate is accessible and jealousy is free
Bitterness is easy and blame comes even easier for me
And lust is a game that you always will lose
But who minds losing when each level has new contestants for you to choose
And you can yell out
Ok iâm finished
Now i want to win
Well too bad cos winningâs not up to you
All you can do is choose when to begin
To start losing something different
Shaped vaguely like pride
But much bigger and much heavier and much much easier to find
And once you give that away you will know
By the sickness in your stomach and the numbness in your toes
Because love will break you apart
And love is hard
