Why Won't You Love Me?

VERSE 1
An autograph for your necrograph
Yet you turn away and belly laugh
Tell the world I’m damaged goods
I’m a psycho hiding out in the woods
Imagination short circuited by pills
Wasted potential killed off by the ills
Scandalous past kicking my own ass
The quiet one in the back of the class

CHORUS
Why won’t you love me?
Why do you shove me?
Enough room in my heart for an army
Even for the ones who try to harm me
Why won’t you love me?
You’re so high above me
Enough room in my mind for a choir
Love me or leave me, down to the wire

VERSE 2
Jealousy is a sincere form of flattery
Exclusion is a real form of battery
Failure is the true root of all agony
Suffering is the beginning of tragedy
I see you flying like a golden angel
My wings are bent at a funny angle
I’ll see you on the bottom of the barrel
I’ll find you when I’m lonely and feral

CHORUS
Why won’t you love me?
Why do you shove me?
Enough room in my heart for an army
Even for the ones who try to harm me
Why won’t you love me?
You’re so high above me
Enough room in my mind for a choir
Love me or leave me, down to the wire

VERSE 3
My passion won’t allow me to let go
My anxiety won’t allow me to know
The answer to this riddle called life
No matter how I hard I fucking try
They tell me to be patient and wait
Until the day I’m at the pearly gates
Work harder than I’ve ever worked
Until I blow a fuse and go berserk

PRE-CHORUS
Why won’t you love me?
Why won’t you care?
Why do the masses
Give me a blank stare?
Why won’t you love me?
Why won’t you join me?
Could my cries for help
Be that fucking annoying?

CHORUS
Why won’t you love me?
Why do you shove me?
Enough room in my heart for an army
Even for the ones who try to harm me
Why won’t you love me?
You’re so high above me
Enough room in my mind for a choir

Love me or leave me, down to the wire
