"Love" lyrics

"Love"

The hell I put you through
Is the paradise you asked for
Spit what you can't chew
You never gave those twisted fucks before

I can see your spirit bloom
No need to be somebody else
Life's meant to resume
Among all the ugly welts

You pay a high price for love
You should learn how to choose
To have is not to trap
So hold on to the real you

No prize if it's super easy
No gain if it's only you, see
Running high in shallow rivers
Never make it out to deep sea

Been so long since you asked yourself

Let's start over, not resume
The plank is hard but worth the core
Sometimes dark shades of doom
Is the light we are looking for

Ask me once but give no more
Since I took all the worth of gold
Hold me tight as you pull up the shore
Let me be part of this trying fight

You pay a high price for love
And you should learn how to choose
To have is not to trap
So hold on to the real you

No prize if it's too easy
No gain if it's only you, see
Running high in shallow rivers
Never make it out to deep sea

I hear you asking yourself here
I hear you asking yourself here
Who are you
Been so long since you asked yourself
Who are you
It's like being taken off the shelf
It's been so long
Since you chose to tag along
