As crucial as they say love is,
I don't feel its light is undying
or perhaps it is and it's me who can't see it
it's warm but I don't feel it thawing our hearts,
something's gnawing now, hard

As usual I find that love is just a word and though I can speak it
I can't show it because i just don't know its ways
a man grows ashamed of what he became
but this lie's just a phase

a glass that's not half full nor half emtpy
but shattered, pouring broken glass down and deep
drink it up, f***er, gulp it down
destined for an early, sloppy end
now reality's the ghost of a dream once had

As fruitful as some swear that love is
I can't vouch for I've yet to taste it
yeah, and whether or not I come to know it
and become or blow it
well, it's not something I'll miss
for how can one miss something like love
something like this, a dream once had of bliss
