Baby, baby, baby, bring me down


Before the affair

Happy wouldn't be

The right word

But it's closest

.

Content would be better

But so would depressed

The love was both

A blessing and curse

.

Why did you come into my life? What lesson was I supposed to learn?

.

That sweet-candy smell

And the tang of the apple

Hurts more than it should

But the joy is incomparable

.

The pain the goes with

The constant uncertainty

Almost isn't worth it

But it really, really is

.

Why are we doing this? Why here, why now?

.

Surely it's not healthy

To hold onto broken glass

But the blood is beautiful

And feeling is a new sensation

.

It must be wrong

To the eyes of the others

It must be masochistic

To bring the glass to the heart

.

Why do we allow ourselves to be destroyed? Who are we really destroying?

.

Tripping and falling

Hurting and killing

They're new to this

And it shows in the pain

.

Work gets in the way of things

Personal feelings must come second

A stony silence reigns

Apologies lie in every kiss

.

How much are we prepared to sacrifice? Will the sacrifices bring us down?

.

Despite the relationship

The game must go on

Endless and wild

Someone has to die

.

A relationship can't survive

With so many secrets and lies

Kisses and promises are made

Neither knows if it will last

.

Why do we affect each other so much? Were we meant to be together?

.

They don't want to harm

But that is all they can do

There is no alternative

Fate is sealed
