Forced Metaphors

lyrics

FORCED METAPHORS
Words by K. Adkins

Metal can feel like wetness
Pity just like tenderness
And healing grace from above

Pride can be a prejudice
Hubris only confidence
And passion lust without love

Charity can feel like sinfulness
Wrapped in your own selfness
If you give without love

You’re a compass to my loneliness
When I’m lost in your wilderness
All roads lead to your love

Wagered what I had and lost
Given what our lives will cost
Taken breaths that where once mine
Let me hold you one last time

Without love, Without love
We’re just forced metaphors
Without love, Without love, Without your love
We’re just like simple similes to weak analogies
Without love, Without your love
