how come I feel so bad

and still I'm looking for tears?

the sun has been out all week

the weeks they all seem like years

still I would not undo

what I have done, because it's right



I wish I'd never learned

the things that I know today

but I've been touched and I

will never be the same

we're in a lonely spot

because we are saving our souls



and who says this is



who says this is love?

I say this is pain

we don't need to go on

fighting shame with shame

and if you hate me now

you don't know that I'm good

and that I've taken on

a lot more than I need



I did the dirty work

and now I'm using the gun

almighty universe!

I know my will will be done

I'm in a lonely spot

because I am saving my soul



and who says this is



so let there be pain

pumping through me

until I think I need to faint

- until I am someone



and who says this is love?

I say this is greed

you say you're good for me

but you don't know what I need

and if you hate me now

you don't know that I'm good

and that I've taken on

a lot more than I need



who says this is love?

I say this is pain
