The Love Song That Is Not

The Love Song That Is Not
You suffer for what you believe in
You suffer for what you think is real
You fight for some semblance of gravity
To give weight to the things that you feel
You search and you climb
But you can't seem to find
Your way up or out the door
Somewhere on the road
Your direction's eroded
And you forgot what you were fighting for
Living is the leading cause of death
So far no one's made it out alive
But we do what we can with our
Two little hands to try and build a life
We can survive
And you stack up the days constantly
Amazed that you've made it this far
For all you endure
There's rarely a cure
But you learn to appreciate the scars
Let me be the one to hold you
Let me be the one you call home
I'll love you for all your inconsistency
Because that's all that I've ever known
But you know life and love
They are one and the same
You stumble blindly through the both
And they both cause you pain
But there'll be moments in your life
That only love will see you through
Just know that no one else in your life
Will ever love you as much as I do
So live for two seconds without dying
Laugh at the reasons for giving in
Make living and loving a way of life
Don't just choose the battles you can win
Because you know that it's time
This is not the way it always has to be
But you know that it's time for your life
To begin with me
