lyrics

You're hardly fit for compassion, you're wanted
You'll never lose your love for the chase
Can't carry on depended on in that fashion
Your heart wasn't made to be accepting of chains
But it strange she sees change in the light
When the bond of the night ain't strong enough for the day
Can't give her all of your time you know
That she'd just happily waste

So go on and make it easy on yourself
Can't live your life giving it all to someone else
Hold back, it's more than time you could waste
For the love that you give could always be misplaced

'Cause love don't always do what it's told
Though some think the heart could never mistreat the soul

You're findin' fear in devotion
Like it's a trick to take your freedoms away
You try to escape emotion, evading the shame
Of you declining when she asks you to stay
Is that what you want, to treat her like a drug
While she's searchin' for affection in the lines of your face
Play it like love, to break the connection
Get your fix and then feel sick throwin' the needle away

So go on and make it easy on yourself
Can't live your life giving it all to someone else
Hold back, it's more than time you could waste
For the love that you give could always be misplaced

'Cause love don't always do what it's told
Though some think the heart could never mistreat the soul

So go on and make it easy on yourself
Can't live your life giving it all to someone else
Hold back, it's more than time you could waste
For the love that you give could always be misplaced

'Cause love don't always do what it's told
Though some think the heart could never mistreat the soul
