Lyrics
I know of a man in love with his own tragedy
With a push pull love hate he spoke ballady
And I could never wish such self detriment on anyone
Cause he revolved around her the way the Earth revolves around the sun, yeah
A sun who could not give life
To an atmosphere so polluted
Cause with past strife
Even the clearest clarity is diluted
And I could never wish such self detriment on anyone
Cause he revolved around her the way the Earth revolves around the sun, yeah
Yes, you can mean real well
But it all comes down to what you spell
Spell it out, and what fell out of your mouth?
And in the end what you intend can be forgotten
Because if love is a verb
Your love just hurts
And now I know and now I see
What I never want to be
A sun cannot give life and no one can ever be right,
And now matter how she tried,
The Earth was never satisfied
And it did not matter how hard she played
The rules of the game changed everyday
And I could never wish such self detriment on anyone
Cause he revolved around her the way the Earth revolves around the sun, yeah
Yes, you can mean real well
But it all comes down to what you spell
Spell it out, and what fell out of your mouth?
And in the end what you intend can be forgotten
Because if love is a verb
Your love just hurts
And now I know and now I see
What I never want to be
The man the man that I understand (x2)
He only wanted love
And so he put her above
Everyone and everything else
Even his own mental health
The man the man that I understand
Oh, would you please just hold my hand?
The martyr, the martyr
It only makes it harder
The martyr the martyr
For what will you barter?
The martyr the martyr
It only makes it harder
The martyr the martyr
Your life you bartered
Now I know now I see
What I never want to be
