Love is a two-way street



They’ll ask you for a finger, and then for ten
You’ll cut your hands off and say these you meant?!
I’m giving you all the ones I have.
Thinking that this will cut you some slack
And they won’t thank you…
Instead! They’ll ask for eyes too
Your lips and all your senses
They won’t stop!
Until you’re all but a bunch of leftover chops

They’ll come to a point where your heart is their most wanted need
Just draw a line and don’t surrender even if they said ‘Please’
Curl your tongue into a ‘No’
Tangle your rips against their saw
And take back what’s your own
You’re too young to mourn

You might as well ask, ‘what’s left for me’?
They’ll count shamelessly
Your lungs, your nose, your ears...
Bones, spine and the gland of tears

Draw a Line!
This isn't asking for help, this is greed
You have to know the true meaning of a two-way street
