Why do we say we love the sunlight And the way it bursts through a window in the morning But we choose to stay inside And ignore it
Why do we say we love the rainfall And the ripples it makes in small puddles in the driveway But we spend all of our money on umbrellas And raincoats
Why do we say we love the flowers And the scent that drifts from them, Using the wind to hitch a ride But we step on them and rip them from the ground Leaving them to die
Why do we say we love each other And each otherβs voices and mannerisms But we leave each other and let strangers be strangers We ****** and ****, count our fallen as forgotten We put ourselves first Why donβt we love
