Vices & Virtues

Known
How does it feel to be known
To be hated and loved
For the vices and virtues
They call your soul

Truth
The truth is buried inside
A seed that dies and gives life
But still you feel like an archive
Of darkness and light

Laws are all you’ve got
When you give up on love
Hopeless to change
At least you’ll know who’s in the wrong
One more mistake
Will send you out of control

Take
Take it from someone like me
Someone whose whole identity
Was wrapped up
In their own ability

It’s hard
It’s hard to handle the curve
That life will throw your way
When you don’t measure up
To what you thought you were

Laws are all you’ve got
When you give up on love
Hopeless to change
At least you’ll know whose in the wrong
One more mistake
Will send you out of control

Love is patient
Love is kind
Love does not boast
It does not exalt itself

Laws are all you’ve got
When you give up on love
Hopeless to change
At least you’ll know whose in the wrong
One more mistake
Will send you out of control

Laws are all you’ve got
When you give up on love
Hopeless to change
At least you’ll know whose in the wrong
One more mistake
Will send you out of control
