When Love Bleeds

When Love Bleeds

By Nomar Knight

How can I take a chance?

To find a loving romance

When I know all too well

The pain takes me to hell

Like a vampire when he feeds

That's when love bleeds

Nothing but fallen prey

Don't know what to say

As if I'm stuck in my seat

Stinking of rotted meat

Like a zombie as he feeds

That's how love bleeds

I'm no necromancer

Can't get up to become a dancer

No coming back to life

As if my chest holds a knife

Like a ghoul when he feeds

That's when love bleeds

Wish I knew what to do

So I could move on too

But reality bites

Won't reach new heights

So as the monster feeds

That's when love bleeds

March forward I'm told

Try to be bold

Meet someone new

But they haven't a clue

Inside me it feeds

That's why love bleeds
