If I look around me, romance is all I see
When my lovestruck eyes are clouded with pink
A bloody film that makes lust awaken
Tampering with a heart that is already brokenDon't run away dear, I don't bite
I promise you I will only bring light
To our shaded lives
And our lonely minds
I don't want to be used
I don't want to hurt you
I only want to fill this void in me
I want to make you happy
With some silly romance
With these scarred hands
I wish I could give you a part of me
But there is nothing left of meIf I look around me, romance is all I see
When my lovestruck eyes are clouded with pink
A bloody film that makes lust awaken
Tampering with a heart that is already brokenI have been through more than I will ever show
And I will always be wiser than you know
Every white line tells a story
Some are jagged, others clean
I cut my troubles away
On depressing and lonely days
I carved a symbol of love into my skin
Now it is just a scar that is kept hidden
I want to share my eventful tale
But I am so afraid that I will fail
And somehow hurt you
I don't know what I should doIf I look around me, romance is all I see
When my lovestruck eyes are clouded with pink
A bloody film that makes lust awaken
Tampering with a heart that is already brokenI want to hold you close, my head on your chest
But I always find myself seeing the past
In images of the painful desire
Of determined men who couldn't get any higher
The smell of chemicals and sweat
Fill my sinuses, but it's all in my head...
In my bloodied eyes...
It's all in my head...
