Selfish Sacrifices
Weaponized Love: A Tale of Sacrifice
Lyrics
You use love like a weapon
You manipulate love as a tool for harm or control.
I'll be chasing waterfalls till I cave in
I will pursue unrealistic dreams until I break down.
You made selfish sacrifices to
You made self-centered sacrifices to
Become a savior to
Portray yourself as a savior to
Avoid salvation
Avoid genuine salvation
No
No specific interpretation provided in this line.
It's not poetry
Love is not depicted as poetry but as a weapon, influenced by the speaker's teachings.
Thats what you taught me
That is the lesson you imparted to me.
It's pain and anguish
Love is associated with pain and suffering, becoming the speaker's second language.
My second language
Pain and anguish are familiar to me.
Yeah you use love like a weapon
Reiteration of using love as a harmful tool.
You bleed my heart to stay young
You harm me emotionally to maintain youthfulness.
But I still smile for everyone
Despite the pain, the speaker still smiles for others.
Love is compromise and you compromise me so much
Love involves compromise, and you compromise the speaker greatly.
You bleed my heart then tell me that it's still not enough
You harm me emotionally and claim it's still insufficient.
I learned love is weapon
The speaker has learned that love can be used as a weapon.
I'll be causing droughts till you give in
I will cause emotional droughts until you yield.
I fear selfless sacrifices and
I fear acts of selflessness and
Loving safely and
Loving cautiously and
Finding salvation
Seeking genuine salvation

Love is compromise and you compromise me so much
Love involves compromise, and you compromise the speaker greatly.
You bleed my heart then tell me that it's still not enough
You harm me emotionally and claim it's still insufficient.
There's poison in my blood
There is negativity or toxicity in the speaker's essence.
And venom in my love
There is harmful energy in the speaker's love.
I'm exactly who you wanted me to be
The speaker has become the person you desired them to be.
I tried and tried to make it right
Despite efforts, the speaker struggles to make things right.
But standing in a certain light
In specific lighting conditions, the speaker questions their identity.
I'm not sure it's even me that I see
The speaker doubts if the person they see in themselves is genuine.
Because you

But I still smile for everyone

Love is compromise and you compromise me so much
Love involves compromise, and you compromise the speaker greatly.
You bleed my heart so all I know is weaponized love
You harm me emotionally, and now all I understand is love used as a weapon.
