Love Is Louder

Love they say is louder than hate. But I think that it’s a shame, That only holds true when you have a pretty face. Maybe I’m a disgrace, For saying such a thing, But think about your life and how true that *****rings. And I cannot deny what this mirror is reflecting, What’s standing in my way is only one thing. It was beauty killed the beast, In famine it will bring feast. And sideways glances, second chances, you’ll get those at least. But what about me? What about us? It’s power like money, It drives greed, it drives lust. So what about you? What can we do? All I can hear, The sounds that make the world disappear. Love is louder than hate, but I can’t hear it from here.
