Commitment

A time that's forgotten commitment.

A group of souls who've forgotten love.

In this Dead Sea full of voids & sand...

Love lust I've been cursed with from the Up Above.

Even if thoughts of love aren't real,

Even if it's just the liquid in your veins,

Even if it's the sweet lies from old movies,

It's my hope for true love that eventually reigns.

I can't be the only grown-up child in this world,

I can't be the only being full of this passionate fire,

If "loving truly" has died a slow & dry death,

May my love for love make love itself soar higher.

It can't be as simple as your ancient hormones,

It can't be as simple as sexuality & survival,

Even if it's proven to die by scientists, my love...

I'll prove even science is lying... just wait for our arrival!

We'll rewrite the times that broke human spirits,

We'll rewrite what society told us to think & do.

Love isn't something to forget while your mind grows up,

It's the completion of me, it's the completion of you.

So when the darkness tells you to "adult more"

May your inner child fuel your own inner light,

For a life spent alone is peaceful but empty,

A life spent in love will reveal your innermost might.
