Self-Destruction
Love I can't help myself
This is what I am
Love I can't help myself
I'm unhappy with where I am
Out here I'm like a fugitive
Out here no peace for me
At night I dream of living well
Dawn brings insanity
I'd wished there will never come a day
When you'll see me fall
But now I'm falling from grace to grass
Fate is taking from me my all
I wish I could feign the happiness
And make you see me bright
The stress is just too much to bear
I never see the light
Love I can't help myself
Love the hour is near
You tried so much to save my soul
But love I don't like it here
This is what I am
Love I can't help myself
I'm unhappy with where I am
Out here I'm like a fugitive
Out here no peace for me
At night I dream of living well
Dawn brings insanity
I'd wished there will never come a day
When you'll see me fall
But now I'm falling from grace to grass
Fate is taking from me my all
I wish I could feign the happiness
And make you see me bright
The stress is just too much to bear
I never see the light
Love I can't help myself
Love the hour is near
You tried so much to save my soul
But love I don't like it here

This works very well in getting across a message and yet giving the reader the chance to apply his/her own perspective. Love can take the form a person, a distinct feeling, or both.
one line that has me wondering is "But now I'm falling from grace to grass". Any particular reason for "grass"?

Grace/grass are two different realms;grace being a realm of love and hope,grass represents defeat and hopelessness. Its all symbolical Jazz but the point remains untouched;the writer's hopeless. Thanks for the contribution.

great---I got the "grace". The "grass" was the part I was uncertain of. Thanks for the clarification.

"You tried so much to save my soul

I understand that one. I was guilty of that once, thinking that love is all I had to give. It became a cage and one day...it broke open and allow him flight. :) good read dustyjjewels.

Very sad Grace but at a point we need to accept what is for what it is. Thanks for spicing things up.
