My Insanity

If insanity is doing something repeatedly and expecting change

Why do I keep coming back to you?

You've branded me like an animal

As the pain you've caused is damnable 

Your words certainly left their mark 

Like knives in the dark

Oh you are my insanity

I love you but it's so hard to hold back the profanity

No I can't deny

My flesh hates you tonight

But neither can I lie

Deep down I still love you inside

You haunt my dreams at night

As your voice causes the pain to reignite 

Why do you hurt me so?

Because eventually I'll come crawling back as we both know 

I keep following your map

But it always leads to some kind of painful trap

You are my insanity

I love you but it takes away my humanity

It doesn't matter how many times you knife me in the heart

And leave me to die as I fall apart

It doesn't matter how much it'll hurt

Like an idiot I come crawling back in the dirt

If insanity is doing something repeatedly and expecting change

Then why do I keep coming back to you?
