The Kind of Love

so what do you do
when she crosses your mind
and the only memories
are not very kind?

so what do you do
when he runs through your brain
and the only feeling
is that of pain?

and there you are
wishing, wondering,
waiting on the day
you'll have to stop wondering
just what's going to happen

[its the kid of love, that you just want out of your
life. one where you only got hurt. one where you find
someone better, someone who won't hurt you, but
you still think he's the only one. its the kind of love
where you'd endure the pain just to know its r e a l]

and there you sit
pleading, bleeding through your eyes
your heart, your soul
your pathetic cries

so what do you do
when they hear your tortured screams
and they only try to convince you
its only in your dreams?

so what do you do
when you'd bleed just to have him
just for that small shred of hope
that he feels the same

and there you lie
staring up at the sky
waiting on the day
you won't have to cry

and there you hide
the scars that show
just how he hurt you
how no one will ever know
know how badly it hurts to wait
to sit and wonder
just what he's thinking

[its the kind of love, that you'd kill to hear he still
wants you. one where you sit up at night, because
you're too afraid to dream of him. one where you
can't remember you're life before, or can't imagine
what it'll be like after it. it hurts to wait, but it hurts
more to linger]

so what do you do
when that love hinders you
and you can't seem
to life that weight?

you may find it hard to believe
but yes, we're still alive
even after so many nights
you've let your heart bleed

[it's the kind of love, that you can't bear to remember,
but can't bear to let go]
