Love

By LiesWithin

I take medications just to feel like I could be alive,
But I guess that's not what being alive is all about,
I'm getting tired of breaking promises and not trying,
What is being alive all about?

I make things worse by taking too many chances,
Because it all ends the same way,
I guess I'm the type of person who takes things for granted,
Because it all ends with the same pain,

Love is just a word, it's not how we feel,
It doesn't define who we are when we're together,
It doesn't help if it's the truth you conceal,
Hoping that things with us will get better,

I guess that I want to be numb to you,
I guess that you want to be numb too.
