The Imperatives

When we can't begin

unless it's with an argument

we're losing out on

love for the sake of it

I was thinking we can go and live

in a monastery

throw away the imperatives

make our pockets empty

'Cause I'm feeling bankrupt

and I'm losing speed

and I don't want to hold on

to anything

When I misbehaved

to get what I wanted

was that wrong when what I wanted was

love and affection

Let's get out

let's get out

let's get out

let's get out

I was thinking we can go and live

in a monastery
