Can't Understand

Folder: 
Loving/Being Loved

I can't understand this feeling,
A constant drug of emotions sweeping over me,
Some days I'm strong enough to conquer the world,
Some days I can't breathe, I can't see.

At one point I thought I'd escaped,
Before you pulled me straight back down to you,
I can't control this addiction anymore,
I'm completely hooked on you.

When you're around, feeding my heart, my soul,
Then I have that strength to conquer the world,
But when you're gone, I'm drained, I've lost everything,
The thought of you makes my stomach want to hurl.

This is too intense, I can't understand,
How one man can make me so crazy,
There is no way in hell I can leave you,
After you've permanently scarred me this way.

We have no chance of leading average lives,
Completely intoxicated yet it's not enough,
No one knows, no one understands,
This twisted, crazed emotion we call love.

Sometimes I hate you for it,
Making me so dependant on you,
Sometimes I cry out to be set free,
But I know there's nothing anyone can do.

I want so bad to be normal,
But no one understands how we've tried,
To try and control it and just live our lives,
But we can't outrun it, we can't just hide.

How have you done this to me,
Where did this come from,
How did you feed it to me,
How was I able to feed you some?
