Lemony Snickets had it right, it really is a series of unfortunate events that leads to the end of it all, isn't it?

How many times can you hurt something before it doesn't heal anymore? How many times can you beat it before it breaks? Love beaten down eventually becomes something else altogether doesn't it? if i take a bike for example: it was made to function a certain way, yet if i take a hammer to it, to the parts that are integral for it to work, then it no longer resembles a bike, it no longer performs the way it was meant to. I might get the dents out, get it working again, but it will never ride the same. I'm begining to think love is no different. .. .

I think I'll quote the ever deep and angsty Foo on this, because right now, they are speaking my language.


"Best Of You"

I've got another confession to make
I'm your fool
Everyone's got their chains to break
Holdin' you

Were you born to resist or be abused?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

Are you gone and onto someone new?
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use
I was too weak to give in
Too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Oh...

Oh...Oh...Oh...Oh...

Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
The life, the love
you die to heal
The hope that starts
the broken hearts
You trust, you must
Confess

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?

I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
I'm getting tired of starting again
Somewhere new

Were you born to resist or be abused?
I swear I'll never give in
I refuse

Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Has someone taken your faith?
Its real, the pain you feel
You trust, you must
Confess
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, the best of you?
Oh...
