Pa**ion Pit - Love Is Greed lyrics

You want a love, a love for us You want a selfless love that we can always say we trust, oh Love has always been a mockery Of those in love and scared to be lonely Don't wanna love, don't wanna hurt If all that loneliness requires just another's comfort Better off being all on your own There's a beauty in being alone Today we're arguing it's not worth making Another person as just yours for the taking All your hoping and praying Won't do more than saying that Love, love, love, love is just greed It's almost taking me And now I can see Love, love, love, love is just greed A selfish little need You follow or you lead If we really love ourselves How do you love somebody else? A love to us, a love to them It's just a history repeating itself time and time again Love is not a veil to hide your voice All this talk of love just turns to noise So you want love, a love so tough But even all these truths don't seem as though they're adding up, oh Haven't you already had enough? What's this suffering remind you of? Someday we'll all agree it's not worth making Another person that's just yours for the taking All your hoping and praying Won't do more than saying that Love, love, love, love is just greed It's almost taking me And now I can see Love, love, love, love is just greed A selfish little need You follow or you lead If we really love ourselves How do you love somebody else? A love all gone is just another story What's gone sour once was glory, glory, hey It's romance you want, well ask for it then Honey, could you put your arms around me so Tell me things about you that I wouldn't know And tell me that you love me like you do And maybe I will too Love, love, love, love is just greed It's almost taking me And now I can see Love, love, love, love is just greed A selfish little need You follow or you lead If we really love ourselves How do you love somebody else?
