Never used to be so tired

Never used to be so anxious

Never said "used to be" so much

.

If this is love then I

Have been so sorely mistaken

If this is peace then I

Have been so falsely awakened

.

Please don't tell me what love is

Let's look together

And find out what love is not

.

I've been to every book

I've been to every seer

In order to find the truth

As if it lives somewhere

.

I want to uproot my violence

I want to live like a saint

I want to give up everything

.

Just like the businessman wants to gain

Just like the businessman wants to gain

.

Please don't tell me what peace is

Let's look together

And find out what love is not
