verse 1
sometimes love ain't always rainbows and sunshine
sometimes love is like a glass full of moonshine
pure as the purest sea but too strong to handle
it's crazy how a fire starts from one little candle
but when the fire goes out,what's a person to do?
lay in what's left of the ashes til the pain finds you?
and believe me pain will find you to collect what it's owed
you'll begin your long journey down the darkest of roads
even though you're warned about the dangers beforehand
you're hooked on it now, you'll keep going back for more man
Chorus
you wouldn't put your hand on a hot stove or run through fire
avoiding danger is human nature it's just how we're all wired
but there must be a malfunction in our cranium system
cuz love could really hurt us but we don't seem to listen
we go back to it all the time like it's our default mode
its all we've ever known it's sort of a moral code
the biggest contradiction you'll encounter in this life
is how love sustains you then cuts you like a knife

verse 2
love sometimes protects you, then it rejects you
it's very confusing, tell me does love even respect you?
it's supposed to connect you
but sometimes it ejects you
and spits you out like a retro vcr player
like an onion it peels off your remaining layers
i got nothing else to say cuz i'm tired and i'm in pain
only way to stop heartbreak is rewiring all our brains
back to chorus
end of song
