Lovers Without Love

Joshua James - Lovers Without Love [mf]

this road has all but taught me lessons
about my lonely soul,
i am young and getting wiser,
soon i will grow old
strip my heart from misconceptions,
fill my eyes with grief,
let me make my own connections
in this endless sea

of muscle cars and endless bars,
of shopping centers for the teens,
high price propane,
and crack cocaine,
and lovers without love like me

i see so much my vision is blurry,
in the world i live
if we're to change then we must hurry,
the devil's moving in
love and hate can not see color,
like the human eyes,
so priests and preachers,
parents, teachers,
don't act so damn surprised

it's the world we've made,
we're living in
of greed, lust, and poverty,
of war and pride,
teen suicide,
and lovers without love like me
from topless dances to Marilyn Manson
and lovers without love like me

there's kids in gangs
we have coveted fame
we have sweat shops across the sea
we have abortive mothers,
we hate each other

there's lovers without love
there's lovers without love
there's lovers without love
like me
