TOUGH!

you don’t wanna make me spiral
when I’m safely in denial,
that’s how I wanna be;
simplicity.
I can live within delusion
longer than your average human
‘till I’m in the rough;
it’s not love if it’s not TOUGH!
it’s not love if it’s not TOUGH!
all those mental acrobatics
just to part the sea of static
now I miss the noise,
and I miss the boys!
have I done something to hurt you?
it’s the child I revert to when you call my bluff;
it’s not love if it’s not TOUGH!
but something went wrong
in my adult gestation,
turnin’ ‘em fictions into expectations.
who’s gonna listen
when the sun just shoots away?
i’m too young to be this fucking afraid
that I’ve already fried my brain!
(you can get a lot done
while you’re going down the drain)
i’m too young to be this fucking afraid
that I’m already at the brink!
(you can drive with one headlight longer than you think)
you can drive with one headlight longer than you think.
then it’s 4:00AM,
i’m suddenly afraid of everybody
cause anybody up
is just like me.
it’s the shame that makes it lonely,
but the shame that makes it work,
don’t fuck with the circuitry!
(you’re gonna fuck it up, man)
you can understand science
you can understand God,
but you will never understand
what makes you cum.
you can understand privilege,
you can understand love,
but you will never understand
what makes you cum,
until it doesn’t.
until it doesn’t!
don’t turn around,
you don’t wanna see me like this.
tears of a clown
but it’s an average crisis.
sea’s gonna rise until it carries us away!
AWAY!
you wanna chase your dreams
as if it’s 1994?
(go ahead!)
there’s no money left in music anymore.
(zilch!)
you wanna fight for something big,
something worth fighting for?
(that's cute!)
there’s no money being human anymore.
(noooooo)
you wanna chase your dreams
as if it’s 1994?
there’s no money left in music anymore.
you wanna fight for something big,
something worth fighting for?
there’s no money being human anymore.
it’s not love if it’s not TOUGH!
it’s not love if it’s not TOUGH!
it’s not love if it’s not tough.
