Crimpshrine - Closed Doors, Closed Minds lyrics
rate meWhy do words like "love" and actions of affection<br />
Get taken as a threat or promise of devotion<br />
Instead of just accepted for the beauty that they have?<br />
When you tell someone that you love them<br />
They act like you're taking away all their freedom<br />
But it's giving, it's not taking away.<br />
Love and friendship don't restrict and bind<br />
Those chains are only in your mind<br />
It doesn't have to be that way.<br />
People act like it's something to be ashamed of<br />
To lock away or hide behind closed doors<br />
This kind of secrecy only breeds social scheming, <br />
Gossip, lies, and misunderstanding<br />
It doesn't seem that appealing to me.<br />
Why do words like "love" and actions of affection<br />
Get taken as a threat or promise of devotion<br />
Instead of just accepted for the beauty that they have?<br />
Why bleed all the meaning out of emotions<br />
With all kinds of weird connotations?<br />
Words will fuck us up enough by themselves.
