Love
Brody Kleuser 2003 (Missouri)
What is your purpose?
How do I be happy without you?
How do I get over you?
Love
Why do you make me think?
Do things for people
Why are you so blind?
So painful
So memorable
Why do you hurt
Why does it hurt to love
Why can’t I understand you
Love
You can stay with us
In our hearts
In our heads
In our soul
Love
Why can’t you talk
Why is the drug I need you
Why can’t you be easy to understand
Easy to find
Love
Why do your hurt to feel
Why are you the reason humans cheat
Why does it hurt
Love
Why can’t you be easy as a mother’s love?
Easy as a little kid's love for toys
Why do you have to be so hard on our hearts?
Love
Why do you bring us pain that we will remember
Who are you love
What is love
The reason so many cry at night
Love
Just have mercy for me one more time
Show me who you really are
Show me what the word “love” means
Love
Show me why
Love
Why do you leave me with questions?
With so many whys
With pain
With feeling lifeless
Love
You leave me left with no heart to give to the next
How is the pain you give me suppose to make me stronger
With no hope left
Love
Why are you so indecisive?
Why do you leave me feeling heartless?
I only think about at night
Why only at night
Love
You are just a drug I wasn’t warned about
Why do I need you
Why do make families fall apart?
Love
Why do make me want to text her
Why do you make certain songs make me cry?
Who are you?
Love
You showed me how to forget
How to still care for someone who doesn’t care
How can you make a family become a family?
Why do you make it hurt to remember?
Love…. Just why love?
