Lyrics
To Be Love
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.
Welcome to the planet earth.
Welcome to the heroes fall.
This is a thing called birth.
The forgetting you knew it all.
this is called your first step.
This is called your first time.
This is called your first break.
The one that locks yours mind .
The one where you thought that you'd died.
The one where you screamed and you cried.
I'm still waiting to be loved.
I'm still hoping there's enough.
The constant wanting to be loved.
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved.
Welcome to the race of rats.
Welcome to eternal blame.
The trick is to stay asleep.
The key is to play the game.
But don't let them see you cry.
Cover the hole inside.
Welcome to the planet earth.
Welcome to the heroes call.
This is a thing called birth.
Come on remember you knew it all.
That there's no love from some one else.
If I can't love myself And I'm still waiting to be love
