The Need, Not The Cause Lyrics

So how can we just drown ourselves in apathy
When we've all seen the lie of better times?

We turn our heads away, but there's a price to pay
At the expense of those who never loved at all (who never loved at all)

They fall and everything's lost again
These are the hearts that will never know
Tell me that love is something that I could move from me to them

Tell me, just tell me

And how can we spread hatred so religiously
When we all have the time to recognize
That there's someone out there who'll never understand
That love is something worth living for

They fall and everything's lost again
These are the hearts that we'll never know
Tell me that love is something that I could move from me to them
(x2)

So how can we rest when our children are so helpless
When all they need is a hand to hold on to?

Don't even tell me that this is too hard to change
(To change your ways)

They fall and everything's lost again
These are the hearts that will never know
Tell me that love is something that I could move from me to them
(x2)

Tell me, just tell me
That everything's been, everything's been lost, lost again

Cover art for The Need, Not The Cause lyrics by Life on Repeat

Looks like I've turned this into a disaster. I never thought I could fall any faster. I really need to get myself together. So here we go again Just come with me my friend

I found exactly what it feels like to hit rock bottom when you're burned out on just about every little thing that you've done.

So I dropped my case When I saw your face As it looked down at these pages And you told me That this is the worst song that I've ever written.

How does she see inside of me?

I'm not the one who wants to be alone But it's too much to ask for Cuz I fell in love again. I'm with you until the end. And if we talk then maybe we can make this happen cause when you're with me I'm at ease.

I've got myself in the mirror Attempting to lie about what I've become But evidently nothing has changed.

Now when I see my reflection I realize that you and I are the same. The fact that you can affect me Will forever scare the hell out of me.

How does she see inside of me?

I'm not the one who wants to be alone But it's too much to ask for Cuz I fell in love again. I'm with you until the end. And if we talk then maybe we can make this happen cause when you're with me I'm at ease. And if I hope then I can count on you to hurt me cause when you're with me I'm at ease.
