Love was fiction
I was a writer
I knew the underlying emotion
But I never felt it first-hand
I know it's not right
I know it's not normal
But I like it better when you're around
Cos I miss you when you're gone
Love you when I'm completely numb
Am happiest when I'm around your energy
Love was fantasy
I'd seen the movies
I knew what people liked to see
But I never knew I had it in me
I know it's not right
I know it's not normal
But I like it better when you're around
Cos I miss you when you're gone
Love you when I'm completely numb
Am happiest when I'm around your energy
Why does my heart beat like a drum?
Why do I think of you a lot of the time?
What kind of sorcery is this?
You are a fucking alien
For making me see things this way
I feel insane just thinking this
But it's in my head so it exists
And I write it out until it sinks into my skin
I know it's not right
I know it's not normal
But I like it better when you're around
Cos I miss you when you're gone
Love you when I'm completely numb
Am happiest when I'm around your energy
Love was a load of bullshit
I wasn't naive
I know what it feels like now
And I'll never, ever let it go
