I Got This Love

Chorus (Passion) (2X)
I got this love (3X)
Because because because because

verse 1
because of Jonestown
because of Auschwitz
because the leaves fall, and we can't stop it
but that makes fall leaves,
I'ma start a mosh pit
(ch!) this is your captain
hopping out the the cockpit
I forgot my parachute

i'll be saying "hey ground!"

for the deaf kid in the aisle of the symphony
who hears it through the rumble of the tuba and the timpani
For those lay waste to beauty with a straight face
everywhere on earth we're all escaping from the same place
and yes occasionally we get drunk and out of line
and last night, there's a lamp post that I asked to be my valentine
take a shady place, shine until it radiates
seventeen to eighty eight, make a break and head west
or make a promise to your lady in a red dress
Last night in my hot mess
That lamp post said yes
Chorus

verse 3
Detroit is equal till there's half its people laid off
While corporate lawyers and former employers play golf
Because of furor over every juror paid off
and because the f
