Land Mines

I walked right into a trap designed for me
Suspicious, but it sparked some curiosity
Ignoring signs, man that's way too hard for me
Especially when the view is art to me

And I was a fool that fell for your disguise
Tried telling myself I wouldn't cross that line
But then ignored my own advice this time
And detonated all of your land mines

So now I'm stuck in this position, just reflecting on my feelings
And I'm staring at the ceiling in the middle of the night
Like why you being distant? Got me here reminiscing
Wishing for you, with another woman laying by my side
And lost all my pride, I just wish that she was you
Just need a few distractions, what the fuck I'm 'sposed to do?
But really I been giving way more that I been getting
Just wish I saw your vision, what is your point of view?

But baby, why would you wanna place these
Explosives and set me ablaze, why love?
Why set me a ablaze?
And leave me all alone to extinguish these flames
Now I'm disintegrating, and you won't even save me
It's driving me crazy that I'm all on my own

And I'm all on my own
When I get a ring, I hope it's you calling my phone
But now that's far-fetched, but still regardless
I'll be alright soon, well at least I can hope
'Cause it ain't easy letting you go
But for you it is, that shit gets me the most
Guess our time meant nothing, who knew it lacked substance?
Hate being wrong, let down, having to cope
With the fact that this chapter has come to a close
Or will we reunite soon?
Nevermind, you'll oppose
Or will I find another you?
Well the future's unknown
And while traveling, trust I'll be searching the globe
But what happened baby? What happened?
Why throw away the magic?
Why put us in the past tense?
Why no explanation for the way you switched? It's tragic
Now you got me falling right back into a habit
Of overindulgence, constantly searching
For distractions and what happens is
I'll make some moments, then do 'em the coldest
Unintentional but I'll disregard their emotions
And leave 'em hopeless, now I think to myself
"Man you do the same shit to everyone else
With the way she got you feeling, now you using all these women
As a fill-in, but it makes it worse, so the shit is inefficient"
Somehow convinced 'em that I'm invincible
But everybody got a kryptonite, some ain't reciprocal
Damn, it ain't reciprocal
Hate we ever met, hate how deep I was into you

But maybe it's self inflicted, with just how hard I tried
Ignoring all incentives to just move on with life

But why the fuck I'm tripping if I'm really out here living
And I'm meeting all these women, man I'm really living life
But they ain't got her image, they don't give me the same feeling
If I want it, I'ma get it, I ain't ever satisfied
Wishing you was mine, but I can't force you to
See everything from my point of view
Showed you I was willing, going out my way to fit you
In my life but it'll never be a me and you

But baby, why would you wanna place these
Explosives and set me ablaze, why love?
Why set me a ablaze?
And leave me all alone to extinguish these flames
But now I'll just face it, that you had me waiting
So long for a day that would never come

Why set me a ablaze?
And leave me all alone to extinguish these flames

Why set me a ablaze?
And leave me all alone to extinguish these flames

You'll get what you want from me
You'll get what you need
But in this war, I'll accept defeat
All this time, finally
