Disconnected

I call to you, you refuse to answer
Baby, this is worse than Katrina, this is an emotional disaster
Why do humans do things this fucking sick
Continue to destroy with the pain they inflict
 
Our love has become no more than an open sore
Continually you rip away the scab and pick at it some more
You like the emotional torture, watching as we rupture
Circling my heart like yet another dam vulture
 
I made pledges before to stop falling for this shit
But you slid in and capotured me bit by bit
with silky words you trapped both my heart and mind
Once these were enlisted my ass fell in line
 
In one instance you're pure and the essence of truth
You could entice an elderly gentleman to relive his youth
But in the next instance, in the blink of an eye
You would bring him crashing down from oh so high
 
The fruit of love can be enjoyed by only a few
And I was destined to fail pledging my heart to you
But the lure of a taste of such a rare fruit
Opened my ears and your words took root
 
Exotic words of things and places wrapped in love
Blinded my sight and I couldn't see it wasn't love
Because with this love you saw your chance
To torture me with thoughts of true romance
