Lose to Find

i only had what i never did after i lost it

to lose is to find

and don't you see?

the divine nature of my love for you is why I cannot look you in the eye

because its unbearable and takes an amount of courage that sometimes i cannot muster up

and i would always ask why, with a question mark,

until i came to know my mother after she closed her eyes

and so i go why!

and i laugh and i cry

and i laugh and i cry

because it hurts to love and it's always been easier to lie

to sleep as down i lie
