My Love Isn’t A Drug

Feel our death while sharing our breath, and we’ll live forever after this 

In that space of no more crying and no more dying

Pray peace over love because chaos does

 

Abused like a substance. Take a hit of me

A muse’s dumb trance got the best of me 

Used like a drug you can never get enough of 

Demand your way when you don’t like what I say 

Run from me, run far away….keep running until you’re free

  that what’s happening while you’re accusing me

I’m still right here, making my way, while you’re afraid.

Now you’re back to counterattack

Abused like a substance. Take a hit of me

Confused by the dance of love’s next tragedy

I’m taking it away; flushing down the drain

This accusation is making you insane

Used like a drug you can never get enough of 

Begging for yesterday, back when you loved me, back in my arms, back to   

  the high I need 

Begging for back then

Begging for your love 

Begging for my drug

Angry-confused-mentally abused

You keep taking your love away, but I know I haven’t changed?

Why won’t you love me? 

Show me you love me?

Hold me in your arms!

If you loved me you would do as I say. 

You’d stop what you’re doing and do it my way

Instead you keep on taking your love away. 

Begging for back then

Begging for your love

My drug 

Don’t you dare take it away

 

I’ll hurt you and say it was accidentally 

I didn’t mean to say it.

I didn’t mean to betray it…our sacred bond of love.

Begging for back then

You’re doing it again 

Begging for my love

Begging for your drug 

After pulling our foundation…like a rug 

Anxiety-sobriety-fucked up society

The light in me?

Our dynasty?

Something slowly dies in me

Cries inside for me

Every time you take a hit of me

And blame it on your sobriety

 

How do I go on…playing the role placed upon me?

I had no idea until it dawned on me…I didn’t agree to this…I didn’t get set free for this

I know what love isn’t, and this is it

I know love didn’t intend to be a hit

How did I get here, receiving love again

Only to find out I was being reeled in…

To replace the empty space in another human’s race

Running out in haste 

 

My love isn’t a drug, but I’m the dealer on this one. 

Will you play the hand you’re given…to shuffle and start again? 

My love isn’t a drug…it’s soft when comprehended 

It’s tough when stomped and ended

My love isn’t a drug, but I’m the dealer of it. I’m the healer of it.

Soft will comprehend it

It’s tough to end it

But I’m the dealer on this one. My love isn’t a drug

I’m not here to feed you. No hitting on me.

I’m not here to need you if this is how it’s gonna be

I’m not gonna plead with you

Just to bleed with you

My love isn’t a drug, but I’m the dealer on this one.
