I hate love It never leaves you alone Clawing, whispering at you And it, in its full glowing form never stays long But its ghost never leaves. A song creeps onto my speakers And I’m there Brushing your hair off your face Grossly in love Holding you so close. And I can’t exorcise it I’ve purged you Deleted your existence from my life But I can’t delete that love And its lingering too long. And I’m exhausted, haunted By something long dead That I’ve buried I’ve found out Love’s flame is eternal, isn’t it.

love's flame eternal
I hate love It never leaves you alone Clawing, whispering at you And it, in its full glowing form never stays long But its ghost never leaves. A song creeps onto my speakers And I’m there Brushing your hair off your face Grossly in love Holding you so close. And I can’t exorcise it I’ve purged you Deleted your existence from my life But I can’t delete that love And its lingering too long. And I’m exhausted, haunted By something long dead That I’ve buried I’ve found out Love’s flame is eternal, isn’t it.
