Dear Love (Stripped)

Dear love, where have you been?
Why did you break my heart again?
I thought you'd be here, you're just an illusion
You promised me you'd take care of my human

I do drugs to numb, you drink to forget
And we got along till it turned to regret
Did I scare you off with all my feels?
You know, for a second, I thought you were real, but

Now who's gonna stop me from my reckless behaviour?
I don't know, I hate all the feelings, I gotta get them out

I'm writing dear love
Why you tryna mess me up?
You got me writing dear love
Why you tryna mess me up?
God, it feels likе
I'm outta my head, I'm outta my mind
I spill my thoughts on the dotted linе
Dear love, I hate all these feelings
I gotta get them out right now

Dear love, I should've known
That you couldn't handle it when I felt alone
I needed your care, just longed for affection
I wanted acceptance, you wanted perfection

I gotta tell you
I thought you were deeper, maybe a keeper
Thought you might be empathetic, but you acted apathetic
Oh, and now you're just a ghost

Now who's gonna stop me from my reckless behaviour?
I don't know, I hate all these feelings, I gotta get them out

I'm writing dear love
Why you tryna mess me up?
You got me writing dear love
Why you tryna mess me up?
God, it feels likе
I'm outta my head, I'm outta my mind
I spill my thoughts on the dotted linе
Dear love, I hate all these feelings
I gotta get them out right now

Dear love
Why you tryna mess me up?
You got me writing dear love
Why you tryna mess me up?
