Love as addiction, and the difficult task of retaining the more positive memories of a relationship

It's impossible to say why I'm feeling A-okay I'll bet it upsets you, there's a chance I could forget you Misplace all those memories, deny your ownership of me It's impossible to stay; it seems so pointless anyway And yes, it upsets me that you'll probably forget me Displace all that chemistry, defy a stubborn destiny It's like the line between pleasure and burning addiction It's like knowing with each step that you're surrendering It's like hating your guts, but kissing your skin It's like wanting out when I'm in Each and every moment leading to today They're all in danger of just fading away I bet it upsets them that we'll probably forget them Replace every memory, surrender them to history It's like the line between pleasure and burning addiction It's like knowing with each step that you're surrendering It's like hating your guts, but kissing your skin It's like wanting out when I'm in We'll cross them sometimes, these cracks in the tar A broken guitar that's way out of key You're turning to me and I've turned away I'm turning the key and you're in my way It's like the line between pleasure and burning addiction It's like knowing with each step that you're surrendering It's like hating your guts, but kissing your skin It's like wanting out when I'm in x
