I Hate Love (M. Brooks)
OK not a happy song but I bet many of have been there. The first time we performed this live (In Urbino March '12 I saw a woman singing along in the front row which proves, hopefully, that it's not only repetitive but something others can associate with...)
Love made me reckless
Love made me blind
Love made me lose my money
Love made me lose my mind
Love made me a prisoner
And threw away the key
I hate love
And love hates me
Love made me a victim
Love hit me hard
Love cut me down
Love left me scarred
Love kept on kicking
And wouldn't let me be
I hate love
And love hates me
Love made me vulnerable
Love made me weak
Love hit me harder
When I turned the other cheek
Love left me defenceless
For all the world to see
I hate love
And love hates me
Love led me up the river
Love left me high and dry
Love made me a promise
Love told a lie
Love got me begging
I'm down on my knees
I hate love
And love hates me
Love split my family
Turned me against my friends
I tried avoiding it
But Love got me in the end
Love's got me captive
I want to break free
I hate love
And love hates me
