Myths

Sometimes you make me horny,

Sometimes you make me mad.

Sometimes you make me feel so good,

Sometimes you make me feel so bad.

I know this isn't healthy,

And it's tearing me apart

But there's no way I can ask you

To just take back your heart.

I try to break it off,

But you ask me to come back to you,

And I do.



If I told you I felt peace inside,

Your little angel would have lied.

And I can't believe that you don't see

All the dirty things you do to me.



You said things will workout, you'll change,

Yet you put my heart in danger

The words you say, the things you do

Yeah, I know, you're so smooth.



When I look in your eyes, I don't see the man I fell in love with,

Was he just an illusion, just a myth?

Maybe now I just see who you really are,

Well, this has to end, it's gone too far.



You've trapped me in the physical,

And I'm too ashamed to get out,

Things I thought were sacred,

But now I know what you were all about.



I wasn't prepared for the guilt that now I feel

I had wanted a love for real.

You've deceived yourself into thinking

That this ship isn't sinking.

Because I can never love you now

That all I feel is regret.

Isn't this what you wanted?

Surely something I won't forget.



I don't know why you say you love me,

And you insist you do,

I guess we used to be alot the same,

But, don't you know, boy, we have changed?

There's only and empty harvest for us to reap,

So I'm asking that your heart you keep.
