The idea of love
Is better than the real thing
Just because you are in love with love
Doesn’t mean you are in it
I have seen better days
When I came out of it okay
When life didn’t push me where I didn’t want to go
When life didn’t have these jagged edges
That seem to poke at me from every angle
The emotions swirl and spin till there is a tornado in my head
Raging inside of me till I can’t break free
This explosion inside and nothing to release it with
I take the pin and prick myself
Letting it all out, one push at a time
There is nothing left for me to say
Nothing left for me to do
I cant be who you want
I cant even be who I want
When I see you and you call me over just to talk
And then look completely past the point I was making
You are not looking into my soul
You are looking into yours
There is no me
Only a reflection of you
There has to be a reason why I am here
Still talking to you
If I leave I am alone
But maybe it is cause I am in love with the idea of love
Not you

This part really rings true...it's all about feeling understood...feeling connected and validated....like the person really sees you...and not who they want you to be.
