Love is Like Lead Poison August 5, 2022

Your love is like lead poison

In your hand you hold the pencil and all I can do is try to erase the marks

Scribbled etchings all over my heart

That’s the way you like it

That’s the way it’s been

It’s the same line every time

Lies that leave permanent black marks

And the story is true

I’m a fool for you

I don’t feel beautiful

I don’t feel good

I only feel bad

I just feel mad

I’m just going through the motions

There’s no lead up

There’s no foreplay

That’s the way you like it

That’s the way it’s been

I’m a blank sheet of paper

and an unwritten future is all I see

Apathetic love is written on the wall

I don’t feel beautiful

I don’t feel good

I only feel bad

I just feel mad

There’s no candles

There’s no wine

There’s no happiness

That’s the way you like it

That’s the way it’s been

In and out- down for the knockout

Over and above isn’t our love

It just isn’t intimate

Love has run the course

I don’t feel beautiful

I don’t feel good

I only feel bad

because I feel mad
