How It Is

If it likes you
You better beware.
It will definitely try to kill you
Only because It cares.

It will curse you out,
Beat you down,
Threaten your life,
And push you around.

It is here to tease, never please.
It's a description that fits.
It's here to make you wish
You had it.

It'll insult you.
It'll try to bring you down.
It'll piss you off
Just to see if you still come around.

If you walk away,
Then fuck it.
It just means
You aren't worth a shit.

If you continue to stay,
It might give you a chance.
It'll continue to do this
Until it lets you in on its dance.

You see it takes two to tango.
Didn't you already know?
If it lets you let you dance with it,
Will you promise not to let it go?

But it's letting you know this,
It's letting you know this now.
You have to keep it interested
In order to keep it around.

But no matter what when it begins to love you,
It will try to waltz away.
Your job is to keep it near,
Because it will go any day.

It's the way it is,
It can't help that.
Some asses of the past...
Well you have to bring it back.

Make it warm again.
That mean, cold, piece of ice
Is the monster it has become.
It cannot even answer why.

If it leaves you,
You have to take it back.
It tends to make the worst mistake
When it's thinking of its past.

It's only afraid of getting hurt.
Please don't take it the wrong way.
You have to assure it,
That you won't hurt it in any way.

All this monster wants
Is somebody to love.
It just wants somebody to love it back.
Just somebody to hug.

This monster needs you.
Far more than you know.
This monster is very unstable.
It doesn't want you to go.

It may make it seem like it does,
It just doesn't know how to show you,
That it loves you very much,
It just doesn't know if you love it too.

Please just love that monster.
In its time of need.
You just have to understand,
That monster is me.
