Murder You with Love - Struggle Jennings

I never cave under pressure

I learned to turn my pain into pleasure

Your hate became my drug, the high just ain’t enough

The ones you give your heart to will murder you with love

Life’s full of hard turns, no blinkers, got me out drinking these drinkers

I can feel the world at my fingertips but I can’t out-think these thinkers

Found peace when I found distance, but solitude slowly gets to you

Felt peace a time or two, now my heart feels like an inner tube

A forty-five can’t kill the void, a music high can’t kill the noise

What you know about heartbreak?

I slow dance with the real McCoys

I left on a search for gold, Lord knows I was in a pinch

What I found was a treasure chest, what I lost was innocence

Forgiveness can’t love me, my attitude’s so ugly

I blame it on these stab wounds from anyone who’s loved me

I pray I find redemption on the other side

My person’s like a battle cry

I used to care but I no longer give a fuck

I prayed for help when I was stuck, no luck

Yeah, hate became a drug, the high just ain’t enough

The ones you give your heart to gon' murder you with love

I never cave under pressure

I learned to turn my pain into pleasure

Your hate became my drug, the high just ain’t enough (Struggle)

The ones you give your heart to will murder you with love (yeah)

The water’s getting muddy so I stay clear

Always thrive inside the pain 'cause I was raised here

Writing all these songs of love and war like I’m Shakespeare

Ain’t no love at first sight with me, it seems to take years

Hard to trust a soul, I sold mine for this treasure map

Lost it all, gained nothing back, how the hell you measure that?

Give 'em love too hard to handle so they always let it go

It’s just in my genetic code to go into poetic mode

Hoping with the motions it’s too late for me to zip it closed

Most these bitches fake as hell, they heart is made of silicone

Lord T is rare now, cool kids gotta sit alone

Traveled on this lonely road, one day I hope I feel at home

I used to care but I no longer give a fuck

I prayed for help when I was stuck, no luck

Yeah, hate became a drug, the high just ain’t enough

The ones you give your heart to gon' murder you with love

I never cave under pressure

I learned to turn my pain into pleasure

Your hate became my drug, the high just ain’t enough

The ones you give your heart to will murder you with love
