Lyrics Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge

Love Will Live

I can smell the lies like a filthy net on me

All over my skin (All over my skin)

Suffocates my innocence, unwelcome hands on me

All over again (All over again)

There's a lie in the shadows saying I'm to blame

And it's feeding on my fear, my confusion and my shame

There's a lie in these years I've wasted on this pain

Things are gonna change right now

I did not shatter, did not crumble, didn't die

I have chosen to live

I'm no longer down, I am so much stronger now

I've got so much to give

I know that it's forgiveness that saves me from this fear

I'll get there some day (I'll get there some day)

I'm clear that it's this moment that gets me outta here

And I know the way (And I know the way)

There's a lie in the shadows saying I'm to blame

And it's feeding on my fear, my confusion and my shame

There's a lie in these years I've wasted on this pain

Things are gonna change right now

I did not shatter, did not crumble, didn't die

I have chosen to live

I'm no longer down, I am so much stronger now

I've got so much to give

Not my fault, it's my time (Oh)

Love will live, love will love

Love will live, love will love

My love will live, my love will love, oh

I did not shatter, did not crumble, didn't die

I have chosen to live

I'm no longer down, I am so much stronger now

I've got so much to give

I have chosen to live
