On Love, On Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So I sit here writing words in our old place
They all come out as letter
And I contemplate mistakes that we all make
We start at the ending of errors
When history fades we identify the problems
But they may not be problems after all
Shock and dismay they affect what we say
We should bite out tongues
We should bite our tongues
Because after all it's only our lives anyway
And I can't let it bother me
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
Can we stop taking ourselves
Too seriously?
So I sit here carving words into the walls
Words that remind me of just how I was
I never felt as old and lonely
As I felt when I was young and in love
When history fades we identify the problems
But they may not be problems after all
Shock and dismay they affect what we say
We should bite out tongues
We should bite our tongues
Because after all it's only our lives anyway
And I can't let it bother me
If fact and fate just can't agree on love, on life
Can we stop taking ourselves too seriously?
Too seriously?
