lyrics
Show my mercy
I never meant you any harm
My heart is broken
And you’ve twisted both my arms

You were my mirror
There was so much you made me see
Now I see clearer
How you reflect the bad in me

In turn I’ll take all I can take
And I will twist all things around
I’ll test your limits till you break
And I will kick you when you’re down

Is this true love
This screwed love

Is this true love
This screwed love

Please forgive me
I never meant to cause you harm
My heart is open
Now that you’ve broken both my arms

You know I miss you
In your absence I grow sick
That's 'cause I need you
Just like a junkie needs a fix

In turn you’ll take all you can take
And you will twist all things around
You’ll test my limits till you break me
Then rape me when I’m down

Is this true love
This screwed love

Is this true love
This screwed love

Please excuse me
I didn’t mean to make a fuss
I know I chose this
I must’ve known that soon enough

I would feel trapped here
In the confines of your cage
But I chose this
I submitted to your rage

Yes In truth I asked for all this
And I mapped out my own fate
To be the vent for all your anger
All your hunger, all your hate

So I thank you, I thank you for
The moments that you gave
For making me your lover
And your brother, and your slave

In this screwed love
This screwed love

Is this true love
This screwed love

Is this true love
This screwed love

Is this true love
This screwed love
