i want love

i want love

but it's impossible

a man like him

so irresponsible

a man like him is dead in places

other men feel liberated

i can't love

shot full of holes

don't feel nothing

i just feel cold

don't feel nothing

just old scars

toughening up around my heart

i want love on my own terms

after everything i have learned

me

i carry too much baggage

oh god

i've seen so much traffic

but i want love

just a different kind

i want love

won't break me down

(won't brick me up

won't fence me in

i want a love that means something

that's the love i want)

i want love
