It kills me not to know this but I've all but just forgotten

What the color of her eyes were and her scars or how she got them

As the telling signs of age rain down, a single tear is dropping

Through the valleys of an aging face that this world has forgotten

There is no reconciliation that will put me in my place

And there is no time like the present to drink these draining seconds

But seldom do these words ring true when I'm constantly failing you

Like walls that we just can't break through until we disappear

So tell me now if this ain't love then how do we get out?

'Cause I don't know

That's when she said I don't hate you boy

I just want to save you while there's still something left to save

That's when I told her I love you girl

But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have, whoa oh, whoa oh

And the day pressed on like crushing weights

For no man does it ever wait

Like memories of dying days that deafen us like hurricanes

Bathed in flames we held the brand, uncurled the fingers in your hand

Pressed into the flesh like sand, now do you understand?

So tell me now if this ain't love then how do we get out?

'Cause I don't know

That's when she said I don't hate you boy

I just want to save you while there's still something left to save

That's when I told her I love you girl

But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have, whoa oh, whoa oh

One thousand miles away, there's nothing left to say

But so much left that I don't know

We never had a choice, this world is too much noise

It takes me under, it takes me under once again

I don't hate you

I don't hate you, no

So tell me now if this ain't love then how do we get out?

'Cause I don't know

That's when she said I don't hate you boy

I just want to save you while there's still something left to save

That's when I told her I love you girl

But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have, whoa oh whoa oh

I don't hate you

I don't hate you, whoa oh

I don't hate you

I don't hate you, no, whoa oh, whoa oh
