lyrics

verse 1
I know that among other things
I've spent too long in factories
I'm living little bit by bit
And in this great big pile of shit
We've found that we can still pretend
to love each other as a trend
but I'll say otherwise

verse 2
I'm fixed on ruining your guise
A softer price than gazing eyes
No longer will I have to fret
That this is something I'll regret
And in this life we'll have to mend
the broken words that I have penned
but I'll say otherwise

chorus
And oh, we'll love we'll love
And in our hearts we'll love, we'll love
And somewhere down the road
we'll be so proud we learned how
to love

verse 3
i'm losing more than sanity
is this the final test for me
and getting sick of playing games
saves the day by faking claims
together with a flame so hot
that it burns more than all you bought
but they'll say otherwise

verse 4
in hipster form i'm gaining speed
the rest we'll find a different breed
this way I'll know that i'm for real
and no longer need any seals
but friends they say we're not yet done
in about 5 months we'll start to run
but they'll say otherwise

chorus
And oh, we'll love we'll love
And in our hearts we'll love, we'll love
And somewhere down the road
we'll be so proud we learned how
to love

verse 5
I've drank myself to overdose
on things we felt were too morose
but i should take whats mine to keep
and get myself some proper sleep
this box of pens we never opened;
broken hearts we left into dead ends

bridge
and i can't help but justify
the lies i've held behind my eyes
but in the end i'm still a liar
no mistakes but we'll go higher
this is how the story goes
on and on and on, the rest you know

chorus
And oh, we'll love we'll love
And in our hearts we'll love, we'll love
And somewhere down the road
we'll be so proud we learned how
to love
