Boy Bowser - LOVE IS WAR

Love is war, and I've caused and taken damage
It's hard to choose between love and all of my passions
And if you don't know me, don't act like you understand me
Cause it'll be a while 'fore you actually understand me
I know, that I can be a bit closed off
And you hate it when I'm out in the club showin' off
I make mistakes, I acknowledge it when I've been in the wrong
So understand me when I'm singing this song
I've put my cards on the table
Wanna be honest but I don't know if I'm capable
And when I lie, I know that's the shit that you hate me for
Like what I'd take you for, a fool?
I know I've done a lot to hurt you
And I could tell you I'm ashamed, but change like Rome ain't built in day
I hope my actions down the line help with pleadin' my case
I'm makin' an effort on my part, cause I want you to stay
But I know love ain't enough just to make you stay, uh
I guess I'm changin' my ways for good
I've heard your criticisms of me and they're understood
A lot of girls I've entertained just because I could
But didn't really take the time to consider if I should
I've made some selfish decisions
Our issues pilin' up like dishes up in the kitchen
We talk and we argue but neither of us will listen
It seems like this relationship is finally out of commission
But when I get to reminiscing
I can't help but feel the distance between us and how it hurts me
Pushin' all my buttons when I'm mad, you know that irks me
You bringing out the worst in me, we finding ways to cut into each other like it's surgery
But an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind
We sever ties, say I'm over you but it's all lies
I fill my time with others just to keep you off my mind
But without you in my life feel like the sun don't shine
I can barely get to sleep
Copin' with the break just ain't as easy as it seems
Uh, you know I gotta say my piece
Cause between you and me, I ain't built for these streets, girl
I ain't built for these streets
You the only one I ever wanted in my sheets
You the only one who ever meant something to me
And it kills me just to think of how different it could be if we had tried a little harder
I guess learning from our mistakes is part of getting older
Before you go and gimme the cold shoulder, I gotta know just how you really feel
Has us together lost all its appeal?
