A Romance For Perverts

from Burn Down Your Hometown by The Descenters

/

about

Unrequited love is a pretty crazy thing.

lyrics

Why, must we just ignore -
the people who adore us
I don't know.

Am, I just obsessed with pain -
or is my mind to blame?
I don't know.

The fastest way to get attention
is to give you no affection

The fastest way to get affection
is to give me no attention

Why, can't we just fall in love?
With caring hearts who want us -
I don't know.

Does, this have to be the way -
that twisted lovers stay?
I don't know.


The fastest way to get attention
is to give you no affection

The fastest way to get affection
is to give me no attention


Because love isn't rational
Love isn't reasonable
who we find desirable is simply
out of our control
And I do wish it could end up different
And I know I might die alone.

But I can't, but I can't go on
No I can't, No I can't go on
But I can't, but I can't go on.
No I can't, No I can't go on
