Love Doesn't Always Win

Love doesn't always win

Sometimes it breaks you down

Takes you to a hell that you've never been

Turns your heart into a ghost town

Love can be weirdly beguiling 

Then set you on fire

And walk away smiling

Leaving you scorched on a smoldering pyre 

Love takes you by surprise

Deception on its lips

While staring in your eyes

And tugging at your hips

Love was a promise

Now it's a lie

It started with a kiss

And now I just cry

I know that I loved you

With a love that was true

But now my love means nothing to you

My heart is shattered too.

So my love didn't win

It was turned into my shame

I've been kicked in the shin

You've dishonored my name

I hate that I love you 

So much that it hurts

But your love was untrue

I’ve been stomped in the dirt

You call me a friend

Then treat me like shit

I just want this to end

And get on with it.
