I don't wanna have this fight
I don't wanna play this game no more
This can't be love
This can't be everything
I don't wanna waste this time
I don't wanna have to wait
For you to decide
Love is my drug
Love is my everything
Cos it
Keeps me, keeps me
Keeps me calm
Love is my drug
Love is my everything
Cos it
Keeps me, keeps me
Keeps me calm
You don't wanna mess with me
You don't wanna see my evil side
This won't be us
You were my everything
You didn't have to go that far
You didn't have to ask me why
I wanted to stay
Love is my drug
Love is my everything
Cos it
Keeps me, keeps me
Keeps me calm
Love is my drug
Love is my everything
Cos it
Keeps me, keeps me
Keeps me calm
You say you can read me
Like a book
But you only read a few chapters
I guess the
Truth can be hard to read
Outline
I am more than a light read
More than a story you can
Tell yourself at bedtime
You gotta pay attention
Cos I exist
In between the lines
You woke up and now
You think you really know me
Things I said in the past
Come back in your hands
Now weaponized
You use my words against me
My truths in your hands
They cut like knives
I thought we had a new start
I didn't know it was a race
With my old self
I can never compete
With your past
All the demons
That you keep beside you
All your past
All your lovers
All your fears
Even your sad and angry father
So much anger in your eyes
When you stab me
Fight me, cut me
Now where will I run?
I always thought you were beautiful
I still think so
I have nothing to hide
But you'd rather believe
I told you lies
Now you don't believe
I ever loved you
So you're calling me an animal, now
Full of lust
Now you wanna judge me
Change me
Help me transcend myself
You never asked if I wanted to
You were always afraid to be owned
Trust me, I found freedom
In your possession
Oh, well
You know what they say
Just because you love someone
It don't mean you have to be together
And just because you need someone
It don't mean you get to be together
So go ahead with your knives
Cut loose
Sever the bonds between us
The pain will eventually ease
Scars will heal
And we can both be free
We can both be free
Freedom will light the way
Freedom will light the way
Freedom will light the way
Freedom will light the way
