I can't think of anything to write about at the moment, so I'll let the lyrics of one of my favourite songs speak for me. This song is from the gorgeous, insanely, talented Lauryn Hill at the peak of her stardom, with the classic Miseducation of Lauryn Hill album. This song speaks to me. Been there, done that. Don't let its lyrics depress you though, the melody and Lauryn's gorgeous voice ends up lifting you up more than bringing you down. However I only wanted to post the lyrics since I feel that we don't appreciate songwriting as much as we do image.


Ex-Factor

It could all be so simple
But you'd rather make it hard
Loving you is like a battle
And we both end up with scars
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
See, no one loves you more than me
And no one ever will

Is this just a silly game
That forces you to act this way
Forces you to scream my name
Then pretend that you can't stay
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
See, no one loves you more than me
And no one ever will

Hook:
No matter how I think we grow
You always seem to let me know
It ain't workin'
It ain't workin'
And when I try to walk away
You'd hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy
This is crazy

I keep letting you back in
How can I explain myself
As painful as this thing has been
I just can't be with no one else
See I know what we got to do
You let go and I'll let go too
'Cause no one's hurt me more than you
And no one ever will

Repeat Hook

Care for me, care for me
You said you care for me

There for me, there for me
Said you'd be there for me

Cry for me, cry for me
You said you'd die for me

Give to me, give to me
Why won't you live for me
(Repeat)
