Bitter Sweet

 

It's you that keeps me warm at night. You are the one that makes me shiver. You make me smile with your sweet kisses. The taste of them is bitter. I hate you when you tell the truth, I love it when you lie. I know that you will always love me dearly. I see the hatred in your eyes.

I'm so confused, my mind's a mess. Can't live without you, you cause me stress. The way you make me feel, it can't be beat. Can't stand your love, it's bitter sweet.

I don't deserve you, you're so perfect. You are the wind beneath my wings. Your words are poison, your touch is acid. Your presence makes me want to scream. You gave me life, lifted me up, and I wish that I knew why. You shot me down, ripped off my wings, and left me there to die.

Everything you say feels like a test. Now I have this pain inside my chest. You freeze my heart and give it heat. Addicted to your love, it's bitter sweet.

Love and pain, the heartache's insane. I swear that I'm losing my mind. What am I saying with the words that I'm laying, can you tell what I mean by these rhymes? I don't have a clue, can't stay with you, because I know that you are not right. Don't know what to do, I want to say we're through, but I need you in my life.

Just go.

Stay with me. Baby...

I wish that there wasn't a hole in my heart and I wish that I didn't sound crazy.

Just know.

I hate you. You made me...

Everything I am, but it was all a sham, but I still called you my lady. I always thought your love was shady. B****!

What I meant to say, it was angel. When I'm in your arms it feels like I'm strangled. Can't make up my mind, my thoughts are too tangled.

All I know...

Is that I love you. I hate you. What the the f*** am I talking about? Are you the monster that my thoughts have made you? Is it kindness or venom behind the words that you speak? Guess I can't make up my mind because your love is bitter sweet.
