Desire

You can reach, but you can't grab it.
You can't hold it, control it
You can't bag it.

You can push, but you can't direct it
Circulate, regulate, oh no
You cannot connect it – love.

Discothèque — U2, Pop.

What is love?
Something you can't get?
Something in existence only to piss you off?
Why must we love?

Love causes madness,
Love causes anguish,
Love causes jealousy,
Love causes hearts to break.

Where must love go?
Where are we to put it?
Why should we love at all?
Why must we love?

Love causes cowardliness,
Love causes shyness,
Love causes embarrassment,
Love causes hearts to break.

Why can I not be brave?
Why can I not ask a single question?
Why can I scarcely speak to her?
Why must we love?

Love causes grown men to cry,
Love causes suicide,
Love causes people to hurt themselves,
Love causes hearts to break.

Why must you break my heart?
Why must I be unable to ask you?
Why can't I ask you?
Why must we love?

Love causes… fuck this. fuck life.
