TERMINAL STUPIDITY
You open up your heart to love,Only to get slapped in the face,
Teeth kicked in, Heart torn out,
It's just a case of terminal stupidity,
They rip you, Shred you, Humiliate you,
They drag you down, Run you over,
Under their high heels, They spit in your face,
Oh my what a disgrace, Terminal stupidity,
The losers, The users, Oh the lost souls,
Lead on, Led on, No extreme to mean,
You give your love, They crush your heart,
Blind and dumb, damage is done, Terminal stupidity,
You find out all too soon that dreams fall short,
They're not the only ones with emotions,
And a line is line no matter who says it,
But you always go back for more,
Not just a one night stand,
Not life in the fast lane,
Not drunk for love for drunken sake,
Just looking for love, Not lust.
