Another Damn Love Song

I don't want to talk about it

I don't want to join the ranks

Of all those other starry-eyed cartoons

Guess I'll just keep quiet about it

View the day through grey

And turn the contrast down on every happy tune

But it's a case of synesthesia

I'd do anything to please you

Every color leads me back to you

Now how did I get here

How did I find you

How did a skeptic go so wrong

And how do I make it

How did I go and

Write another damn love song

There's so much to occupy us

Keep us fat and pacified

Each century writes its own epitaph

We're the frozen generation

Indifference stirred with hot impatience

Plotting our decline there on a graph

Same old story X and Y

I can't ignore, God knows I've tried

Keep tripping on the better side of you

Now how did I get here

How did I find you

How did a skeptic go so wrong

And how do I make it

How did I go and

Write another damn love song

I'm not meant to be this light

I'm sarcasm and dynamite

God it was so black and white before

The rags of night would dry my eyes

Collected murderous alibis

Not ready for that bright surprise you brought

So how did I get here

How did I find you

How did a skeptic go so wrong

And how do I make it

How did I go and

Write another damn love song

How did I get here

How did I find you

How did a skeptic go so wrong

And how do I make it

How did I go and

Write another damn love song

Another damn love song

Another damn love song

Another damn love song
