Antipathy

Antipathy — Honey, Do You Really Love? Chorus — Soft, hypnotic Honey, do you really love antipathy? Do you really see what this madness means? You keep calling it love, but it feels like a tragedy, Dancing with the devil in a beautiful dream. Honey, do you really love, or just love the pain? Why you kissing my scars just to open them again? You say we’re meant to be, but what does that mean? When heaven looks like hell, and hell looks like a dream. Verse 1 — Laid-back, intimate Sweet little lies in a velvet disguise, You got a thousand faces, I got tired eyes. You say forever like it’s something you can keep, Then disappear like a promise in my sleep. Oh, honey, ain’t it funny how the story goes? You plant a little garden just to kill the rose. You call it destiny, I call it make-believe, You want the whole damn world, but you won’t let me leave. Pre-Chorus — Whispered Tell me, darling, what’s the price of your affection? Is it love or just another obsession? You want my heart, but you love the chase, How can I miss you when you never leave a trace? Chorus — Emotional, melodic Honey, do you really love antipathy? Do you really see what this madness means? You keep calling it love, but it feels like a tragedy, Dancing with the devil in a beautiful dream. Honey, do you really love, or just love the pain? Why you kissing my scars just to open them again? You say we’re meant to be, but what does that mean? When heaven looks like hell, and hell looks like a dream. Verse 2 — Smug, bittersweet Oh, look at you, playing innocent again, Making enemies of lovers, making lovers out of friends. You want a happy ending with a villain on a string, But you broke your little puppet, now the puppet learned to sing. And I could play the fool, wear a crown made of thorns, Pretend that every sunset means another love is born. But I’ve seen how your heaven turns a paradise to dust, You mistake a man’s forgiveness for a weakness you can trust. Bridge — Barely above a whisper Maybe we’re just strangers With memories to burn. Maybe love’s a lesson That neither of us learned. You wanted my devotion, I wanted something true. Funny how I lost myself Trying to find the good in you. Final Chorus — Fragile, fading Honey, do you really love antipathy? Do you really see what this madness means? Was it ever really love, or just a fantasy? Were you ever loving me, or who you wanted me to be? Honey, do you really love? Honey, do you really dream? If love is just another war, Then what does loving mean? Outro — Whispered Honey… do you really love? Or do you just love watching me bleed? You called it out forever… I called it antipathy.
