Without Love Songtext

von Propagandhi

All in nature ends in tragedy and I
Was the first to finally fade away from my
Grandfather's memories, and how long until the day
My memories of him finally fade away?

Dissolving into gray

Is breathing just the ticking of an unwinding
Clock, counting down the time it takes
For you to comprehend the sheer magnitude of
Every single precious breath you've ever wasted?

I did everything I could, I bargained with the universe
To take my life instead of hers
But no amount of money, drugs, or tears could keep her here
What purpose did her suffering serve?

Is breathing just the ticking of an unwinding
Clock, counting down the time it takes
For you to comprehend the sheer magnitude of
Every single precious breath you've ever wasted?

So much misery, so much indifference
To so much suffering, we can become tempted
By appeals to hatred
This world ain't nothing more than what we make of it

Revenge ain't no solution
To the inevitable pain
Every single one of us must face in losing

The kindred spirits in our lives
Lives so brief, so disappointing, so confusing
As Crone slipped away
I held her in my arms, reduced

To "please don't leave me
What will I do?"
But this cosmic sadness
Is just here to remind you

That without love
Breathing is just the ticking of...
