Love Hates Me

Love hates me and so it makes me shake
And it finds its pleasure in watching me break
So take me away from all of this pain
To a warm, happy place where I can feel sane
But only in my imagination such a place does exist
Beyond the trepidation and amongst all the mist
But reality just sees me shaking again
At the cold hands of a love that won’t start, so can’t end
When all I want is a friend, a warm hand to hold
A loving heart that’s been cut from the mould
Of honesty to promise me that she will never leave
And it won’t be just another lie I’ll believe
But a truth, a devotion, an answered prayer
And I’ll be amazed to see that someone does care
But they’re not there really and I’m still alone
An obscure thing – unnoticed, unknown
Broken and battered – my heart is a mess
And no one can care less as it’s ripped from my chest
