Differences

Come ride this stress ball from hell, a burning carrousel
A joy ride of pain and we cannot stop the rain 
Love me for I cannot love myself 
I'm burning 

Love rapes you and your tears flow down 
A river rampant in all it's fury 
Moves our raft to falls of 

Glory takes away all I have to offer 
No reasons just leaves me naked 
Just as your boat floats away 

The well runs dry so we dig another 
Yet this other births desert 
So we smother our differences 

Sorry doesn't relieve all the pain 
I'm the cause - yet I do nothing
