This Isn’t Love Lyrics by Jay Parish

Test Results: A Songwriter Experiment

2016

You always ask
Why I wasn’t at home
You don’t know where I was
But you know that I wasn’t alone
And I feel your anger
Every time I reply
‘Cause you know how well
I prepare every lie
And that’s what you hate me for
But I hate you more
And we both deny
But we both keep score
And you change my mind
And I change your plans
And you hold my hand
So nobody else can
This isn't love
There's no defense
When you do me wrong
And I get revenge
No, this isn’t love
That’s not what I’m told
When I want to be yours
As long as I'm in control
I say I'm in pain
You say yours is worse
I promise to change
If you do it first
No, this isn’t love
It’s not like before
No, this isn’t love
At least not anymore
And I mention the guys
That stay in your ear
And how you refuse
To make them disappear
I know you love me
But I know what you love more
It’s knowing there’s always
A line of them outside your door
And that’s what I hate you for
But you hate me more
And we both deny
But we both keep score
And you change my mind
And I change your plans
And I hold your hand
So nobody else can
This isn't love
There's no defense
When I do you wrong
And you get revenge
No, this isn’t love
That’s not what I’m told
When I want to be yours
As long as I'm in control
I say I'm in pain
You say yours is worse
I promise to change
If you do it first
No, this isn’t love
It’s not like before
No, this isn’t love
At least not anymore
We both abuse
And we both accuse
Anything to not be
The one who’s gonna lose
We just take turns
Turning on each other
Maybe we should see
That we’re perfect for each other
This isn't love
There's no defense
When you do me wrong
And I get revenge
No, this isn’t love
That’s not what I’m told
When I want to be yours
As long as I'm in control
I say I'm in pain
You say yours is worse
I promise to change
If you do it first
No, this isn’t love
It’s not like before
No, this isn’t love
At least not anymore
