Can I call life the wicked one,
Or the souls that dwell therein??
Should I blame it all on karma,
Or call it a twisted fate??
As I find it funny when the ones
We love never loves us back
Can I blame it on
Not loving the ones that love us,
Or I say we don't always get what we want??
Expectation they say is the root of all heartaches
So expecting to be loved same as we share
Is what breaks our hearts
And not really the way they feel about us.
It makes us question our worth
Though we know we deserve better.
Train your heart to accept disappointment
Especially from the ones you love
For the patience of the heart is beyond what we know,
It breaks, it flutters, but it won't stop loving
Now, I can say life is not the wicked one
For it teaches what we don't know
But the souls that dwell with us
I call the wicked ones
For it amuses me how fast people can change
And how easy it is for them to forget sacrifices
So I'd call them the wicked ones.
Maybe karma is a law no man can escape
For we love not the ones who hold us dear
And hold on to the ones who treat us bad
Thinking they'd realize our love for them someday
And they'd change their ways and love us back
Just as much as we love them
For we accept whatever we get from them
Regardless of how we feel.
The fate is not twisted but our emotions are
For we deserve to be loved and cherished
And not almost loved or almost cherished
In spite of it, I hope that
You remember what you deserve
When you're chasing what you want.
