Falling

My past is full of regrets and pain
And I'm about to do it all again
I put myself through hell and toil
And watch my blood come to a slow boil

I do all of this in the name of love
Hoping to find the peace of a dove
Instead I loose my mind and cry
And constantly ask myself a perplexing "why?"

I find my heart pulled from my chest
And think at that time, "this is the best"
I don't know why I haven't yet learned
That when you play with fire you will get burned
