lyrics

*****Lyrics*****
I think I loved somebody once, but I'm not even sure/
If it really was love cuz it's something so pure/
Undefinable, explainable, nearly unobtainable/
Too far, but at the same time, insanely close/
Some seek it, but never find it/
Some run away from it, but are constantly reminded/
Some write about it or they read it in the fine print/
and some get lost in it and wonder where the time went/
and others regret all the time spent/
Feeling like it's too much work like it's one big assignment/
but others feel the opposite; become one and combine then/
they vow they will be with each other even after life ends/
See love can be a beautiful thing/
just be aware of all the destruction that it could bring/
Like it could drive a sane man mad/
make him crazy over losing all the things they had/
Man it happens all the time, so listen up/
Life is a gamble and it's risky betting all your chips in love/
Plus, it's so addictive like a whole different drug/
Better keep your guard up like you're using fisticuffs/
cuz with love you never know what'll happen next/
People confuse it with lust only being concerned with having sex/
That's only half of it, love should come with and asterisk/
Stating that when love dies, shit becomes disastrous/
I have to get away from this madness it ain't worth it/
It seems that love can only work in a world that's perfect/
but the world isn't the last time I checked/
I fell in love and broke my heart and still haven't gotten up yet/
Still haven't gotten up yet/
and now my life is a mess/
and now my life is a wreck/

and so, and so I've thought about it
thought about it, thought about it, thought about it
I thought about it

and I decided I was giving up on love after I got my heart broken/
Love hurts too bad. It left me feeling all hopeless/
It got me thinking like "fuck it, I don't need it/
it only scared my heart; the type that never ends up healing."/
But, somehow through the pain I realized that love/
Isn't what hurts, it's rejection that does/
It's the loss of a loved one, the fear of loneliness/
Being thrown into a world and finally feel how cold it is/
but see you never really noticed it before/
because you were covered with love to keep you warm/
It's what kept us going, what keeps us workin/
and when you realize love heals, it's all worth it/
It's different for everyone/
That's why it's so confusing but it's good that there's plenty of/
it to go around that we can share with the world/
Don't be afraid let your love unfurl and just go....
