Love is Pain

Say it's not enough to be in love You need to prove it somehow It's not dollar signs or pick-up lines Or anything that you could kiss away now That sinking feeling that you get When you say something you'll regret 'Cause you were jealous of some stranger That she met when you were gone You feel insane 'Cause love is... Pain Say it's not okay to feel that way It's real, you may not make her happy So what's wrong with me? If honestly, I wanna be the only way she can be That hollow feeling in your chest As you both wordlessly undress After a fight, it's getting late You tried your best, but then she cried And you're to blame And love is... Pain Don't believe anyone Who tells you any different If it's easy, if it's fun Something's missing There's this dream I've had 'bout mom and dad Makes me so sad, I wake up crying Can't believe I'll have to live through that Wish it wasn't mandatory dying We go through life, we play pretend Act like it doesn't have to end It's all alright until your friend runs a red light You watch his car burst into flames Love is... Pain
