we are all in love
New song. I am happy to say it is exactly how I want it to be.
I was looking for something, someone to call my beautiful. Someone who needed me like I needed them and who could pick me up when I’m down. Maybe I am a nothing. I could never be your beautiful, but you needed me like a cheap cigarette. Now you’ve used me up and I’m gone.
I guess that’s fine. I’m marked yours ‘til the end of time. You dragged me to your lips, now the ashes fill my mouth.
What I’m saying is, you know we’re all in love. Hear me say it now, because we’re all in love.
Then I looked up for someone, someone to call my beautiful. When I looked around, well, the answer I found was more hopeless than it seemed. Maybe I possess nothing that could ever change how this unfolds. I’ll forgive my lies when I say that you’ve tried every possibility.
I guess that’s fine. I have no regrets left to find. I chased what I had loved ‘til my love had escaped me.
We're all in love.
Something beautiful is all we seek. Something or someone to make our loving feel complete. I searched the earth and all I found were selfish girls and stupid boys all making selfish plans and shouting stupid words. Let's work for something beautiful beneath the sky. Let's work for someone greater, something higher, someone brighter, or someone worth the fight.
We're all in love.
The EP we are working on has a concept. It is my story. It is the story of my relationship from start to end. It is about how I loved, how I tried, and how I lost it at the end. It is entitled "The Resolution." How fitting... This is the last song of my story. I do not know what love the future holds for me. What I do know is this...
Then, I loved when I could, as hard as I could. Now, I love when I can, as hard as I can. The rest is up to God. I realized that last night. I can finally say my story has some kind of end for me that I am okay with.
Pray for me. I'll be at SXSW tomorrow playing my heart out. You can count on that.
Peace & Love
