Love Suicide

LOVE SUICIDE - Written by Carroll Bryant 



I’ve killed all my secrets
I’ve swallowed my pride
I’ve lived in the shadows
Of love suicide
I’ve cared about nothing
And nothing is all I ever got back from you

You’ve done what you came for
You’ve accomplished a lot
You’ve taken everything from me
Everything I got
You’ve never cared for tomorrow
And now yesterday is gone away too

These are not the tears that I cry
They’re just water that’s dropping from the sky
And though sometimes I feel like I just want to die
It’s not enough for me to commit love suicide

I’ve learned to deal with life
I’ve worked oh, so hard
I’ve danced under bridges
With many a broken heart
I’ve worried about everything
And everything has left me far behind

You’ve settled in real easy
You’ve moved on down the line
You’ve taken pictures of my pain
Amid a love suicide
You’ve never gave a second thought
And now thinking is done inside your mind

These are not the tears that I cry
They’re just water that’s dropping from the sky
And though sometimes I feel like I just want to die
It’s not enough for me to commit love suicide

In and out of consciousness, I drift like an oceans lonely tide
In and out of angriness, I settle in for another long hard night
But I know in the morning when the sunshine reigns again
I will have washed away your memory and then
I’ll wash it away again

I’ve killed all my secrets
I’ve swallowed my pride
I’ve lived in the shadows
Of love suicide
I’ve cared about nothing
And nothing is all I ever got back from you

These are not the tears that I cry
They’re just water that’s dropping from the sky
And though sometimes I feel like I just want to die
It’s not enough for me to commit love suicide

And though sometimes I still think about you
In the darkest of nights
You’re not enough for me to commit love suicide

Love suicide? …  Not tonight!
