How do I become so emotionally caught up Even by a stranger’s fleeting glance Someone loses somebody and just that fast I’m starry-eyed and caught in a trance
Love is fulfilling yet hardly satisfied And hate a fire that burns you up inside Time is the essence of what we pretend to need Space is so endless yet only temporarily Life makes us strive to never want to die Death makes us hope for at least one more try
But it seems our emotions rule our existence And to gain control we must be more consistent Because this compassion can be such a curse And the fruits of life can cause such a thirst What I’m very vaguely trying to express Is that life in general can be such a mess
