A Lot About Love
Luke Lotus
You gave me a spark then watched me ignite
Left me in shadows chasing your light
A game of pretend I played for so long
Your silence hit louder than any song
I know a lot about love and the way it stings
It pulls you high then clips your wings
A cruel little dance we weren't meant to survive
A lot about love but it eats you alive
You whispered sweet words with a venomous tone
Built me a house but left it of stone
I drank from your cup though it tasted like lies
Held onto the promise through tear-streaked skies
I know a lot about love and the scars it brings
Wraps you in gold then steals all your strings
A masquerade ball we twirled in disguise
A lot about love but it dims your sunrise
I tried to break free from this web of regret
But the threads of your touch won't let me forget
You’re the ghost in my mirror haunting my face
A love that once burned now an empty space
I know a lot about love and its bitter sting
It promises the world then offers nothing
A melody cruel that hums and deprives
A lot about love but it never arrives
