Lost Without Love

We don't know love We don't recognize love We deserve nothing Not even darkness or depression Session after session We deserve absence of existence Because even darkness and depression Promise light and happiness Even losses Proclaim the next fight Losses proclaim wins And wine And that everything's going to be fine We don't know love We know to water the other with vinegar We know how to induct pain and suffering Death and crucifixion that's what we're good at From the beginning of our times Disobedience and irresponsibility Have been our character traits So be thankful for depression Be thankful for darkness and fear As it promises hope for a better tomorrow We'd be lost without love
