You want a love, a love for us
You want a selfless love that we can always say we trust
Love has always been a mockery of those in love and scared to be in the mean
Don’t wanna love, don’t wanna hurt
If all that loneliness requires just another’s comfort
Better off being all on your own, there’s a beauty in being alone
Today we’re arguing it’s not worth making
Another person that’s just yours for the taking
All your hoping and praying won’t do more than saying that
Love is just greed
It’s almost taken me, but now I can see
Love is just greed
A selfish little me to follow all you lead
If we really love ourselves, how do you love somebody else?
A love to us, a love to them
It’s just the history repeating itself time and time again
Love is not a veil to hide your voice, all this talk of love just turns to noise
So you want love, a love so tough
That even all these truths don’t seem as though they’re adding up
Haven’t you already had enough? What’s this suffering remind you of?
Someday we’ll all agree it’s not worth making
Another person that’s just yours for the taking
All your hoping and praying won’t do more than saying that
Love is just greed
It’s almost taken me, but now I can see
Love is just greed
A selfish little me to follow all you lead
If we really love ourselves, how do you love somebody else?
A love all gone is just another story
What’s gone sour once was glory
And this romance you want, ask for it then
Honey, could you put your arms around me so?
Tell me things about you that I wouldn’t know
And tell me that you love me like you do
And maybe I will too
Love is just greed
It’s almost taken me, but now I can see
Love is just greed
A selfish little me to follow all you lead
If we really love ourselves, how do you love somebody else?
You want a love, a love for us You want a selfless love that we can always say we trust Love has always been a mockery of those in love and scared to be in the mean Don’t wanna love, don’t wanna hurt If all that loneliness requires just another’s comfort Better off being all on your own, there’s a beauty in being alone
