Do you know why I'm in love with you?
Despite all our fighting, all our screaming throughout the night, we make it work. We don't give up.
Do you know why I'm in love with you?
Despite all the tears that stain my pillow, despite all the bruises blotching my skin, I made a vow to never leave.
Do you know why I'm in love with you?
All this time, you pushed and I pulled to comply your request. We did this to balance each other out. But if this goes on too long, your side of the beam will weigh too much for mine to balance. But I'll still hold on. So long as I'm with you.
Do you know why I'm in love with you?
You built me a beautiful past. So beautiful, I never left. The walls of that perfect memory were built so high that I could never escape into the present. You are the monster, but I'm the one in the cage.
Do you know why I'm in love with you?
Because I don't know the answer either.

I don't want you, I just want the feelings back.
