I am looking for genuine love
You are looking only for a good time
But instead of being honest, you lie
You sit there and you waste my time
You barely text me in the daytime
But you make it your business to send me kisses before bedtime
Now I canโt sleep, I am thinking about all the mixed messages you are sending me
Now I cry, and itโs not because of you, itโs because it happens so often
I let my guard down
I know the water is deep and I still let myself drown
I enter a circus and complain about the clowns
This feeling is so familiar and yet each time it still knocks me down
All I ever wanted was genuine, all I ever wanted was a shot at real love
But they lie and lie and lie until it creates a meltdown
And it slows me down, Iโve been around here before
It makes me want to turn cold, but how will I sustain it if my heart houses such a warm soul?
