I wish I knew how to love
Instead all I do is hurt
She disintegrates under my passionate embrace
I don't know why, but I hate myself
When I try to kiss her, she shatters
Something must be wrong with me
Each time we're ready to make sweet love
She breaks down under my lusty stare
If I make a move to touch her
She crumbles away from me
I try to glorify her body
But it merely corrodes away
I want to tell her that I love her
But then her ears will vanish
Or something else will stop me from getting her
When will I learn how to love
Why can't I find someone
Who is sturdy?
