Lyrics

What's the way of love?

Questioning the nature of love, seeking understanding.

Tell me your fiction

Asking for a narrative or story about love.

Tell me your lies

Requesting honesty, wanting to know the truth.

Say to me now you'll never forget this night

Desiring a commitment to remember a special night.

I'm feeling emotionless

Expressing a lack of emotion.

My head's so clear

Feeling clear-headed and focused.

My enemies aren't the ones I fear

Fearful of non-obvious enemies.

You know your kiss confuses

Noting confusion caused by a kiss.

This troubling soul

Describing a troubled soul affected by the kiss.

And I found out

Discovery of the universal theme of heartbreak.

That we're all breaking hearts

Acknowledging the tendency to break others' hearts.

That we're all broken hearts

Recognizing the prevalence of broken hearts.


If only love could find us all

Expressing a wish for universal love.

If only hearts didn't have to fall

Desiring a world where hearts don't suffer.

We can't mislead to make things right

Rejecting deception as a means to resolve issues.

So instead we'll sleep alone tonight

Choosing solitude over misleading actions.


What's the way of love

Repeating the question about the nature of love.

You are thinking I'm crazy

Addressing perceptions of craziness and desire.

But you're blushing of lust

Noting blushing as a response to lust.

I've heard a lot of nice things

Questioning the sincerity of compliments.

But tell me which ones I'm to trust

Seeking trustworthy compliments.

These wall we made are glass

Metaphorically describing fragile barriers.

And they have been known to crack

Recognizing the vulnerability of constructed barriers.

But until then

Enduring until the barriers break.

You'll keep pushing my way

Describing a persistent pursuit.

And I'll keep pushing you away

Reciprocating by pushing away.


If only love could find us all

Reiterating the desire for universal love.

If only hearts didn't have to fal

Wishing for a world without heartfalls.

We can't mislead to make things right

Rejecting deception for resolution.

So instead we'll sleep alone tonight

Choosing solitude over misleading actions.


If you want to take a chance

Encouraging taking a chance to make things right.

And try to make things right

Advocating for efforts to correct mistakes.

You better have a reason to be loved

Emphasizing the need for a valid reason for love.

We all want something more

Recognizing the universal desire for more.

And it is worth fighting for

Stating that some things are worth fighting for.


If only love could find us all

Expressing the wish for universal love.

If only hearts didn't have to fall

Desiring a world without heartfalls.

We can't mislead to make things right

Rejecting deception for resolution.

So instead we'll sleep alone tonight

Choosing solitude over misleading actions.


And if fate were in my hands

Contemplating control over fate.

Would it be enough to understand

Questioning whether understanding would be enough.

Why we feel lost in a world so small

Reflecting on feeling lost in a small world.

If only love could find us all

Reiterating the wish for universal love.
