Can’t Be Love…
Laura Izibor’s album ‘Let The Truth Be Told’ has always given me the feels. From the very first time I heard those songs, while working in a music store back in 2009. I feel everything that she sings and every word in every song has always something to me.
They say love is supposed to set you free
Give you wings to fly
They say love is supposed to hold the key
To life and eternity
What a lie!
Well at least for me it has been a lie. I mean feeling love and feeling someone’s love for you is great but FUCK it is so hard. It makes you question so much and makes you weight things against each other…I feel like I am always giving something up because I love him. I have given up on my friends because I love our time together and want to always be there for him. I have given up on how I look, because I feed myself junk and chocolate because it is something that we like doing together…and chocolate gives me comfort that I don’t get from him, well I do but most of the time I don’t.
You suddenly get colder
And I need someone to hold me tight
And tell me everything is gonna be alright
‘Cos I’m not free
We have those days when love is hugging us and keeping us warm and we are both all smiles and happiness but how real is his love if it is conditional to when he has time for me, for when he is sober, when there is no work.
They say love has all the answers
To the questions
Well baby, I’m still lost
‘Cos I don’t understand
I want someone to love me always and someone to be there for me all the time.
