It had to be you.

By Exodus

Eh.....I know its not my best....but It was one of those...spur of the moment type things...I hope you enjoy!


Here it goes again
That feeling
That questions my faith
I’m everything right and wrong
I’m not suppose to fall
Not with you
But you lure me in,
Every time I come too close
Just one word, or whisper
Sends me shaking, my heart beating
I don’t want to feel anything close
To being in love with you


And all the things that intrigue me
Of all the people I could take
One has me acting up in twisted ways
One has my heart to break

    "I’m not suppose to fall" - the simplicity of this creates an interesting commentary on the idea of falling in love... it seems you're saying that falling in love is something that inherently causes harm...

    "I don’t want to feel anything close/ To being in love with you" - why? Love is a risk... you risk great harm for great pleasure... no, not even pleasure, but whatever it is that is better than pleasure.

    Not all think it's a worthwhile gamble... but I think it is ;) As for the last stanza... it sounds like you're used to being the chooser as opposed to the chosen. But now, you have knowledge of both ends...
