This Is What I Love

This is what I hate and what I love about my life

If I could only stand up for what I think I believe
it might be some kind of relief
I believe I'm half and half about every little thing
but when my head pounds I hear a truthful ring

I want this song to be your friend all of your life

when you see how often your mind and heart
are a million miles apart
it's all that emptiness in between
that makes you crazy, that make you mean

I can't say I understand the first thing about my life


you spend your money and then you die
you leave a tear in a friendly eye
if you add up all those tears you've cried
it's not as many as you held inside

and I'm not complaining...

I want this song to be your friend all of your life

when day by day you're breaking down
you're sure there's nothing to keep you around
you fix your eyes upon the ground
you lose your shadow and then it's found

this is what I hate and what I love about my life
