Preconceived Notions

I was trapped for two years long Like a radio confines a song I didn't do much singing then So when Cupid's in the sky You could see why I'd be a little hesitant I was forced at 16 By a boy who didn't know my eyes were green And he's the one who walked away Too scared to let it leave Cause I sure as hell didn't believe I'd meet someone like you someday I kept looking for imperfections Like a map without directions You are perfect to a t Told everybody you were just a friend Didn't wanna try love again Now you mean everything to me I thought love was crazy A concept too absurd I thought love was hazy Just another empty word I thought love was selfish Receive nothing in return I thought love Was supposed to hurt I thought love was passive Jealous and confused Always screaming at him For the stupid things he'd do I thought love was pointless Like a sky that don't know blue But I didn't know love Till I knew you I thought love was fighting Crying myself to sleep I thought love was violent Date night under sheets I thought love was constant Turns out I was right That's why he and I are over And why I'm here with you tonight
