A thousand miles
I've heard the story say
Love and loss and all the glory
Can be so boring
So underwhelming and plain
If hope is lost
What then is left to trust in
Cause, talk is dust
And cheap like pennies
With such confusion
It's no wonder why love and lust
Have become one-in-the-same
I read somewhere
That when love is true
Questions cease to come
Restlessness is replaced with calm
And, flowers bloom beneath winter skies
So, tell me
Why would I ever give up hoping
Why would I ever want to go through life
Knowing just how much I could've had
Cause I want love and lust to be separated by an ocean
Then swallowed up in a trench a hundred times over
So, that all I have left is hope
That love will somehow overcome
The dusty voices
That faith will somehow overturn
The swelling confusion
And separate love from its current state
From its one-in-the-same
And be so overwhelming
Lust will forget its name
