[-A Song like Hemingway-]

I think I'm losing my grip
I used to be so sure
Where it was I stood
But now the days are all a Blur

My white shirts all are stained
with my own blood and sweat
And Except for my possessions
I've got nothing left

So I'll write a song like I'm Hemingway
No need for metaphor
My heart is just my heart
and the pain is just the pain

A song just like Hemingway
No grifting glamour
Her eyes are just her eyes
and her smile, just her smile

Though I have rhymed cliches,
Penned sad songs about the rain,
minor chords an all
Sometimes the process leaves me drained

I've been to the ocean
and I've nearly drowned
But all that time I was thinking
that if I stayed around

I'd write a song like I'm Hemingway
No need for metaphor
My heart is just my heart
and the pain is just the pain

A song just like Hemingway
No grifting glamour
Her eyes are just her eyes
and her smile, just her smile

And I've walked every mile

Love is not blue skies
Love is not rain
Love is not anger
Love is not pain
Love is not laying
under the stars
Love is not healing
your old battle scars
Love is not hours
spent on the phone
Love is not loving
that youre not alone

Love is love
