The Same as Love

You ask me where I've gone

Why the words won't come

That I'm just flesh bone

Say you feel so alone

Alone doesn't mean what you think does

Those words will never feel quite the same as love

You say you've cried for my laughter

And tried to kiss like her

Played the role when you weren't sure

Begged for the strength to endure

Endure doesn't mean what you think it does

And duty doesn't feel quite the same as love

We talked about entropy

And what it means for you and me

Is this the way it's supposed to be

At war with inevitability?

This fight doesn't mean what you think it does

And winning doesn't feel quite the same as love

Love doesn't mean what you think it does

It's never what it seems and that's true for us
