Love Is Not Real

There have been many sightings of love in truth
The skeptic in me longs for to see of love some proof
Only for you does this happen
Only for you do I careLove is not real
Love is a hoax
It's just a dream
I've had so many nights aloneLove is not here
Love is somewhere else
It's somewhere far
No man I've ever known's come closeIt can be vicious, heartless, dire and cruel
In spite of my mind, my heart longs to find fire and fuel
Only for you do I do this
Only for you do I careLove is not real
Love is a hoax
It's just a dream
I've had so many nights aloneLove is not here
Love is somewhere else
It's somewhere far
No man I've ever known's come closeMy girlfriend doesn't want to know me
And my friends think I've lost the plot
I have become a liability
I got to do something but I don't know whatI'm hearing voices and I can't see straight
I think I might be going insane
Can't make my own decisions
And I just can't wait to mess it all up againI've never thought that I would succeed
Beyond the wildest dreams I've ever dreamt
But everything's become so hackneyed
Familiarity only breeds contemptSo I'm ruining your life, I'm bored with mine
I'm acting like I couldn't care less
Another bottle and another line
Another stranger to undressNext time you stab me in the back
You'd better do it to my face
Next time you stab me in the back
You'd better do it to my faceNext time you stab me in the back
You'd better do it to my face
Next time you stab me in the back
You'd better do it to my faceWhen you forget what you cannot forgive
The terms are so much easier to come do with
When we look at what we're going through
And desaturated until everything is simple
Love or hate, love or hateI have been searching
I have been searching my soul
I've seen the brightest star
I've seen the blackest holeI've found a way to cope
With every twist of fate
Now everything is simple
Love or hate, love or hateNext time you stab me in the back
You'd better do it to my faceAnd when that love comes crawling back to me
To say I've been away
But please let me stay with the, no way
Never again will I do this
Never again will I careLove is not real
Love is a hoax
It's just a dream
I've had so many nights aloneLove is not here
Love is somewhere else
It's just a dream
I've had so many nights aloneLove is not real
Love is a hoax
It's just a dream
I've had so many nights aloneLove is not here
Love is somewhere else
It's somewhere far
No man I've ever known's come so close
