The truth about love
The truth about love?
It will suck the living heaven out of you.
Keep in mind I didn't say hell.
That, my friend, tends to stay
Even after your heaven leaves you
Those demons will enter your mind
Even after the angels sang from your aching heart
Encompassing each canyon carved from rivers of love
You never thought would end in drought
It will drain and dry your soul,
It will kill every plant and so help you god
You hope that there will be a drop of rain to be your savior
You hope and pray that there will be something other than warm tears
And salt water, full of woe
And you will wish that instead of the dried, crusted ground
You could go back to fresh soil
