One Less

hopeless is expecting better from other humans
darkness is the color hidden beneath light of our souls
emptiness is the words spoken when they SWEAR it's the truth
friendless is the one who pulls no punches in his speech
senseless is the claim that creator hates anything
baseless is the desire to accumulate what can't fit into your heart
needless is the hurt we feel that we freely reciprocate

selfless is the song we all should sing out loud
