Catch 22 Songtext
von Truth Hurts

When you love somebody more than they love you
Shall you stand there lying pretending it′s all good
Walk away in denial like you'll live without it
Either way, it′s catch 22

Think how you lied when you said you choose me
Thought I was your woman 'til I found my sanity
Used to cry your pain, what a cold game
This love thang cuts deeper than veins
I can still remember the exact words you used to control me
(Damn, you must be good, babe)
'Cause for years those words were able to consume me
Confuse me, appease me, and blind me, yeah

When you love somebody more than they love you
Shall you stand there lying pretending it′s all good
Walk away in denial like you′ll live without it
Either way, it's catch 22


It′s finally clear to me it was hardly my fault
I can't blame it all on you, we both were dead wrong, babe
But you were stealing me, me away from me
Nobody needed me any more than me
And it′s amazing how the tears fall
Water seeds that grow to be your strength to leave
'Cause I′m finally at the point where I'm ready for the truth
Anything I do from here to make me happy
Is up to me, not you, no

When you love somebody more than they love you
Shall you stand there lying pretending it's all good
Walk away in denial like you′ll live without it
Either way, it′s catch 22

It's gonna hurt like hell, but I′ll get over you
And I wish you well, but I just refuse
To give so much of me 'til there′s nothing left
Guess you can't love me, baby, like I loved myself, no

They say love is beautiful
And I′m usually more optimistic
But realistically, I've yet to see love's beauty
Outside of my reflection
Via the affection that I exude for you
All of the fairy tales begins
I mean, I thought I touched on it
I can′t hold down a running heart
But I am still optimistic and idealistic
Though my eyes are misty
I will patiently await to see the beauty in love on my own
