Monumental Mismatch

We met in the spring, we fell in the fall

Then endured our winter of discontent

Seems need defies all reason

And self-inflicted suffering knows no season

You vex me, perplex me

I wonder after who'll be the next me

I see through it, but can't undo it

This monumental mismatch

You sway me, you play me

You come to spend an hour and over stay me

You unspool me, completely rule me

This monumental mismatch

Before your kisses dry you're gone

And you leave me with your taste to carry on

I know what I know better and I know I'm smart

But with my predilection for contradiction

I'm a set up for a broken heart

You tease me, you please me

Through nights of loneliness your kisses ease me

You ignite me and I can't fight me

And this monumental mismatch

You're a merciless intrusion, a constant cruel confusion

The inevitable conclusion is that I love you.
