Three Songs

I flip a lucky for every pack
Like looking for hope in a heart attack
Stared into the void
Now it's staring back

I'm looking for love but on my terms
Cause there's no other love that I've learned
But I pale to the sun and I'm gonna get burned

The tunnel I'm in aint got no light
Been suffering from its vision all my life
I just want one thing is that too much
For someone to save me before I move on

I'm looking for love but on my terms
I'm looking for a love that's gonna kill my soul
Cause it's a love that no one else has known

I want a savior that aint jesus
Cause I've never been that religious
But if there's one thing I believe in
It's that one day love will save me

Maybe I just want love to kill me

*

I am the living incarnation of
getting put through hell
Like looking for love
Like water from a well

I keep trying to draw it out
Each time I come up short

But with each tug of the rope
I'm starting to choke
I am dying of thirst
I am dying of thirst

Something always goes wrong
When you try too hard
When feel too much
Even after love is gone

I am the living incarnation
Of getting put through hell
Like starting a fire
in a forest in dry weather

I keep trying to put it out
Which each turn of the wheel

I just end up fanning flames
Burning the house down
Walking away
I am burning up
I am burning up

Something always goes wrong
When you try too hard
When you feel too much
Even after love is gone

Like trying to light a fire
In the dead of winter

For one who doesn't love me
For the one whose gone away
There aint nothing I can do or say
