Casualty of Love

The silent night is keeping me from sleep
2am I'm running with bare feet
Heart beat rising I was just 16
Caught a taxi hoping I'm not seen

So naive I could not bear to wait
Oh, oh what I didn' t know
I never loved him so
What was real

And though he was a drug to me
But he's the casualty of love
Through my neighborhood I didn't care
Nothing could stop me from getting there

Had my sickness he was my medicine
So in lust he could have been anyone
Not so special
Mom was right after all

Oh, oh what I didn' t know
I never loved him so
What was real
And though he was a drug to me

But he's the casualty of love
Mama was right there was no love
It's all in my mind

Just an obsession with him
What a wast of my time
Mama was right there was no love
It's all in my mind

Just an obsession with him
What a wast of my time
Oh, oh what I didn' t know
I never loved him so

What was real
And though he was a drug to me
But he's the casualty of love
