Kin To Insanity
Yeah, what'chu know about love? Hah?
Fifteen years deep
That's where I'm at, know?
[Verse 1]
There's something in the way that she moves
Complete embodiment of a seraphim singing songs of my redemption
Hearts seem to suffer abuse when exposed to the elements
So delicate to the touch, easily broken
This they don't convey in the news
Melancholy isn't always malignant if the mission is love
Most are blinded to the bulk of the clues
Plus the pleasures and pains encountered on this journey
We shrug saying, "All I ever needed was you"
Lost in the embrace of an emotion chemically kin to insanity
But what we fear most is the truth
Denial is a fine garment to slip in when you see things aren't perfect
What happens when it's no longer new and the butterflies don't flutter around in your gut when you touch?
You see it's easy then to make an excuse than it is to do the work and breathe new life in, not use blame as a crutch
It's a marathon, not a sprint
A journey of peaks and valleys, but I just want to be with you
[Hook]
I'm talkin' 'bout love, y'all
Love, y'all (x6)
It's a lotta laughing and crying, listening and compromising, but I want to be with you
I'm talkin' 'bout love, y'all
Love, y'all (x6)
[Verse 2]
And it can seem at times you're walking alone
The dark days can get pretty dismal like light never existed and depending on how much you have grown, you can either fight through the pain or drown in the bowels of the demented
Have faith in the seeds that you've sewn
As long as you both realized that love is a journey of trial and error don't let mistakes set in stone
Just learn to forgive 'cause dwelling on the past can forecast more bad weather
Take heed to the examples we've shown
There are no paths uncharted, only expansion of ideas, nothing new under the sky
Love is a poem, the lines don't always rhyme and it may not always make sense to onlookers
But the authors live the feeling evoked, they breathe for each other
Even in times of discourse, they see the sun, just make sure to take note
'cause no matter what, the influence on each other is responsible for who you've become
A lot of long days and nights, a few fights, but we get to make up see I just want to be with you
[Hook]
I'm talking about love, y'all
Love, y'all (x6)
Nothing in this life is ever perfect, I could be anywhere in the world but I just want to be with you
I'm talkin' 'bout love, y'all
Love, y'all (x6)
It's a marathon, not a sprint
A journey of peaks and valleys, but I just wanna be with you
I'm talkin' 'bout love, y'all
Love, y'all (x6)
It's a lotta laughing and crying, listening and compromising
But I wanna be with you
I'm talkin' 'bout love, y'all
Love, y'all (*repeats to the close*)
