You tell me it would all be different
if only I was older
You say that it will all be OK one day
but you turned out just like the rest of them

Your love is only conditional love
you think you can make it better
but in fact you made me a little more fragile
by the minute I feel myself growing weaker

I open up and let you into
places no one has ever gone
but it was all just a game again to see how far
to push me and this tI'me I'm over the lI'mit

Your love is only conditional love
never "I'll be here when you need me"
its always the same
with this stupid conditional love

I put everything out for the taking
just to be stepped on and left out in the rain
never finding what it truly means to love
always finding out what it means not to love

Your love is only conditional love
and it always will be
nothing could make this better
nothing could make this hurt go away

all because of your conditional love

I like it---sounds like the antagonist failed to make the big gesture. Cool~

Good.. But I think the word "conditional love" was overused. And that helped ruin the flow.
