Bastard In Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Bastard in love, there's no turning back.
Punish your lover, and then just turn your back
Punish your future, to spite your past.
Love turns to hate, with every spell you cast.
You keep waiting for the love that you want to feel but you'd never believe it when the hell you that love is real.
You keep wishing, but my love is real, my love is real, my love is real, my love is real.
Bastard in love, they push, you shove.
There's no point in asking, you'll never know why
You run and don't listen, I sit home and cry.
My heart sinks further with each of your lies.
You keep waiting for the love that you want to feel but you'd never believe it when the tell you that love is real.
You keep wishing, but my love is real, my love is real, my love is real, my love is real.
Bastard in love, I can't help what I feel and what I feel, I'll feel to the end.
There may be no right, and there may be no wrong, but there is pain, and it always lasts too long.
You keep waiting for the love that you want to feel but you'd never believe it when the hell tells you that love is real.
You keep wishing but my love is real, my love is real, my love is real, my love is real.
