BadBadNotGood - Love, the Double-Edged Sword lyrics

I think I loved somebody once, but I'm not even sure If it really was love cuz it's something so pure Undefinable, explainable, nearly unobtainable Too far, but at the same time, insanely close Some seek it, but never find it Some run away from it, but are constantly reminded Some write about it or they read it in the fine print And some get lost in it and wonder where the time went And others regret all the time spent Feeling like it's too much work like it's one big a**ignment But others feel the opposite; become one and combine then They vow they will be with each other even after life ends See love can be a beautiful thing Just be aware of all the destruction that it could bring Like it could drive a sane man mad Make him crazy over losing all the things they had Man it happens all the time, so listen up Life is a gamble and it's risky betting all your chips in love Plus, it's so addictive like a whole different drug Better keep your guard up like you're using fisticuffs Cuz with love you never know what'll happen next People confuse it with lust only being concerned with having s** That's only half of it, love should come with and asterisk Stating that when love dies, sh** becomes disastrous I have to get away from this madness it ain't worth it It seems that love can only work in a world that's perfect But the world isn't the last time I checked I fell in love and broke my heart and still haven't gotten up yet Still haven't gotten up yet And now my life is a mess And now my life is a wreck And so, and so I've thought about it Thought about it, thought about it, thought about it I thought about it And I decided I was giving up on love after I got my heart broken Love hurts too bad. It left me feeling all hopeless It got me thinking like "f** it, I don't need it It only scared my heart; the type that never ends up healing." But, somehow through the pain I realized that love Isn't what hurts, it's rejection that does It's the loss of a loved one, the fear of loneliness Being thrown into a world and finally feel how cold it is But see you never really noticed it before Because you were covered with love to keep you warm It's what kept us going, what keeps us workin' And when you realize love heals, it's all worth it It's different for everyone That's why it's so confusing but it's good that there's plenty of It to go around that we can share with the world Don't be afraid let your love unfurl and just go....
