Maybe if I write something pretty in G Major
Examining love throughout this tiny piece of paper
I could feel it again, without consequence
Maybe if I sing on these strained vocal cords
Examining you from memory and off a bulletin board
Your pale, pink-lipped smile I awake to in the night
I can’t get you off of my mind
Love, love, love
You are still alive inside
The distant crack and corners
Of my tuned, but tongue-tied mind
And in all the dirty space
That my heart has set aside
For a love I’d rather fight than confide
Maybe if these trees grew taller
With brush and leaves and weeds
All around this Holy water
I could finally dream in peace and quiet
Forgetting such a simple science
Of this chemical reaction
Just until it passes
Oh, but love, love, love
You are still alive inside
My music, and my paintings, and the poetry I write
And you will carry through this torch
And pass it on with pride
For love I’d rather fight than divide
Oh, but love, love, love
You’re still on my mind
Personified in the fingertips
That softly grace my spine
To truly capture happiness
There’s nothing I can write
But for love I’d rather fight than survive
