Love tears us apart

So we've started screwing again, no big surprise
but when we try and be together out come the knives
In our harsh enviroment our lust survives
Maybe it's love or maybe it's lies

Can we really separate sex & the heart?
the L-word continually tears us apart
so lets not go there lets focus on the physical
if we made each other happy it would be a miracle

we are both out of love & I think thats best
no expectations no sins to confess
you can do your thing & i'll do mine
If we dont mention "love" we will be just fine

Love brings people together but only tears us apart
we were not meant forever we were doomed from the start
when it's not working it's always hurting
instead of compromising we were always asserting

Damage limitation is the name of this game
our power games only fill us with shame
let's keep it simple because i need you around
we belong with others so lets keep our feet on the ground...
