Love broke my heart, love washed me up
Love made me sick, love swallowed me
Love made me weak, everything's bleak
Why do I try
Why do I try
Why
Love took my life, love stole my pride
Love killed my dreams, love made me mean
Love let me drown, love led me on
Love's not my friend, love is the end
Why do I try
Why do I try
Why
Love blinded me, love took my glee
Love laughed at sex, made me collapse
Love ended hope, love stopped the show
Love broke it all, love broke my heart
Why do I try
Why do I try
Why do I try
Why
