Love Gone Wrong by Brian Reith Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Skyscrapers reflect the morning sun
Reminded me about a place I dreamed about when I was young
Now I'm a paper airplane, no destination
Took a nosedive, blame it on my occupation
Patience is the key but I still ain't got it
So the door stays closed while I stand outside it
Knock and tryna pick the lock, instead, I got pickpocketed
That's me in the cold, walking thick socks and mocassins
Scraping hope like oxygen, breathing it in and out again
Waiting for God to turn obstacles into ottomans
But all I hear is pots and pans banging inside my head
Claiming I could've been so much more than who I am
Feeling as good as dead
Letting the letdowns of these unmet expectations
Let me down from up that ledge
Sledgehammer perfectionism to Netherlands
Except in that somehow my mistakes can end up
Making me a better man
[Hook]
Keep on running from my problems
As if avoiding 'em might solve 'em
But they ain't going away
Can anybody heal this pain?
Keeps 'em coming back again
All these cycles keep revolving
[Verse 2]
We take meds, we take shots
We take whatever it takes to make the pain stop
Fake doctors trying to medicate our problems
By numbing and not solving
No wonder we got insane thoughts
Insecure 'cause we all became so obsolete
Incomplete these letdowns knock us off our feet
Top secret chain, we keep it hidden underneath the surface
Like a hide-a-bed, making light of it
Keep moving forward in spite of it
Poppin' Vicodin like they were vitamins
Inciting all type of indictments
We blame it all our environment
That's like a fireman, fighting fire with fire, man
I'm thinking long term, way beyond retirement
I'm thinking Heaven but it feels so far away
So I begin to pray that Heaven meets us here today
I'm looking for a power that can raise me from the grave
I'm looking for a miracle, I'm ready for a change
[Hook]
Keep on running from my problems
As if avoiding 'em might solve 'em
But they ain't going away
Can anybody heal this pain?
Keeps 'em coming back again
All these cycles keep revolving
[Bridge]
This is just love gone wrong
Love gone wrong
Love gone wrong
Love gone wrong
Singin' the same old song
On and on
Love gone wrong
Love gone wrong
[Verse 3]
In the beginning, there was love
Until we took a wrong turn, made a hit and run
Ain't nothing new under the sun
Until the One that made it set the stage, sent the Son
I squint my eyes, wondering could He be the One?
'Cause all these other gods left me lonely, sad and done
I thought that it was over but it's only just begun
Love came around, full circle, soldier carry on
[Chorus]
Keep on running from my problems
As if avoiding 'em might solve 'em
But they ain't going away
Can anybody heal this pain?
Keeps 'em coming back again
All these cycles keep revolving
Skyscrapers reflect the morning sun
Reminded me about a place I dreamed about when I was young
Now I'm a paper airplane, no destination
Took a nosedive, blame it on my occupation
Patience is the key but I still ain't got it
So the door stays closed while I stand outside it
