This Is Not A Lovesong
I'm running out of reasons for caring about the other half
I think my half wants a little more pride
I'm running out of reasons for sharing sometimes I can't think of one

I'm running out of faces that I can call familiar
Hey man I'm running out of friends
That I can call at all

How long have I been sleeping, why the hell am I awake
It seems just to stand here is overkill
If I bend any farther, I swear that I'll break
And I think you should let me

It all seems so perfect, yet

Some people, some people get lonely
Some people they just grow older, and scared of a little pain
And we people, we cause a commotion
We didn't mean to be confused, we didn't mean to be alive
And we don't want to be standing here, standing here

How long have we been sleeping, why the hell are we awake
It seems just to stand here is overkill
If I bend any farther, I swear that I'll break

(chorus)
We ask, and we burn what we hear, on the water
And we speak, we burn what we say
But if you hold the rain

It's just a little further

Don’t wanna scare you
Don’t be unhappy
This is not a lovesong
This is not a lovesong

(chorus)
