NEW LOVE

      (Bryan Cook)

New love, like my addiction to pain
Dismembers my heart and
Short-circuits my brain


This love is coming down hard like rain
Leaves me struggling for the right words
Makes things hard to explain


Your love makes my life, seem worth living again
Makes my life seem important
Makes me WANT to maintain


My love for you, like a fuckin freight train
Is heavy on my heart
And will never be in vain



      (Angel Campbell)    

New love can destroy the strongest soul
Assuming that dissappointments lye below
Because the past has provided such little hope


As walls diminish and hearts open up doors
We second guess the intentions of what's in store
But nothing that's easy is worth fighting for


The struggle is common for you and I
The battles we've faced has left scars we can't hide
To succeed not fail, is for us to decide


It's faith and trust your eyes provide
A trait in many, you just can't find
For once something seemed certain,
Your love found mine.

    "As walls diminish and hearts open up doors
    We second guess the intentions of what's in store"

    ...Deep.
