Love With A Motive

I was too proud to call you that night
I couldn't run
I know running gets old in a way
You sure know how to make or break a day
Well, you just fled the scene
So hard to breathe
You think a lot about yourself so much
For someone who relies
On someone else's trust
I cower to your touch
You think I'd be the one to let go
So carry on
Thrilling to know
There is no control
She's got the soul of poet
And the fire of a bullet
She is what she is
Nothing less or unspoken
She don't love you no more
She's in love with her motive, yeah
This jealousy can't hold me over
I can't get mad
You know that anger gets all in your way
My jealous mind
It hates it but it takes it
Those haunting memories
Are laced with secrets
Although I'm hard-pressed
And back from a fight
You think this would end
But it's taking its time
Confusion, it is such an all-time
Bad written melody
Of course you'd sing
Please carry on
Thrilling to know
There is no control
She's got the soul of poet
And the fire of a bullet
She is what she is
Nothing less or unspoken
She don't love you no more
She's in love with her motive, yeah

Ask about her ways and her secret life
She'll say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ask her if she thinks she can sleep at night
She'll say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ask about her ways and her secret life
Ask her if she thinks she can sleep at night
Thrilling to know
There is no control
She's got the soul of poet
And the fire of a bullet
Thrilling to know
There is no control
She's got the soul of poet
And the fire of a bullet
She is what she is
Nothing less or unspoken
She don't love you no more
She's in love with her motive, yeah
She's in love, she's in love
She's in love, she's in love
She's in love

She don't love you no more
She's in love with her motive, yeah
