歌曲名 All These Engagements

歌手名 The Airborne Toxic Event

They say it's so much better to have loved

and lost than to have lived in a bubble Never

knowing the cost of a broken heart like a loaded gun

it scares everyone

Everyone tells me the same thing every day

You're wasting your time just Wasting away

There's a hole in your heart Just go fill it with love

But what is love What is love What is love

What is this thing I've been told

since thirteen years-old where you feel Understood

undeniably good It's a stain on your sneaker

a hole in your speaker

A feeling apart when you've emptied your heart

She's at the upstairs windowpane

as the young boy cries in the rain

She'll never know the power she wields

as the thunder falls on his ears

And he tells himself Never again

All these engagements and lover's spit

as they grasp at a future and promise

it will Be joyful and fruitful We're better as two

And I cried too I cried too I cried too I cried

Hoping you'd hear me and see right through

all the endless denial I gave to you

I Was childishly hoping you'd pull me through

I want it too want it too want it too

I want it to change me and lift me explain me

and give me a moment of time less

Alone in my mind

When I felt so strange you would hold me and say

I'm stranger Than you can imagine It's true

And I'm yours and I'm yours and I'm here

And I swear there's nothing to fear

So the young woman lies on the bed

while the young man hears lies in his head

And there's no one there and nothing left to be said

All these engagements and lover's spit

All these engagements and lover's spit

All these engagements and lover's spit

They grasp for it They beg for it

They smother it and cling to it

All these engagements and lover's spit

All these engagements and lover's spit

All these engagements and lover's spit

They grasp for it They beg for it

They smother it and cling to it

All these engagements and lover's spit

Love is kind Love is fair

Love is real Love is true

I was wrong I held on

I waited for you

To be whole
