Lyrics by Corinne Sharlet
lyrics
"Maybe love wasn't meant for me
I'm just not the kind
I fall into the empty well
throwing a wish for a dime
And in all of my hunger
Im feasting on cake
this rose colored wonder
its delusion, its fake
Venus, love's got me down
Look what you've done to me
cruel cupid's lie
I was force fed a story
to help me sleep at night
But the night came along
and there was nothing there
except me and my song
serenading the air
Venus, love's got me down
and I'm kneeling on the ground
will you help me out a little
Venus, love's got me down
I thought when I was older
I'd learn who had the proper shoulder
to catch my tears as they fall
but the only thing I've discovered is how to duck, cover
and shield my soldier of a heart
Maybe love wasn't meant for me
and I'll still be alright
I don't need anybody to help me burn bright"
