| Now it can be your best friend
|
| Or your most crippling enemy
|
| A mirage to your most deadly thirst
|
| You walk to chase what you think you see
|
| Now i’ve stopped to write a song about it
|
| 'cause it consumes my day
|
| Even the thoughts make me wanna
|
| «punch my chest 'til it disappears into the crowd»
|
| Shroud my face in disbelief
|
| Take prescription tylenol heart relief
|
| And even the company of my friends can’t wash that down
|
| Nor the biggest glass of self-esteem
|
| A kick in the ass is what I need
|
| To tame the «L» word to tame the «L» word
|
| When it’s it’s there and on your side you know
|
| You feel invincible you won’t say no
|
| And any wish or request is reasonable
|
| To tame the «L» word, to tame the «L» word
|
| But then when it’s against you
|
| You say what the fuck was I thinking
|
| Walking through the Hamptons just to get some bottled water
|
| For half an hour maybe more
|
| Or being 18 walking through the night
|
| And tapping on your screen with a treebranch
|
| Just to say hello
|
| And as time crawls by one by one we say goodbye
|
| To get ready to give the «L» word one more try |
