We need Love but we love Hate
Violence stirs in a peaceful place
Your shirt says Green but I know what you mean (ching)
The smile on your face makes you look obscene.

I’m comin’ on strong when I want to hold back
I’m bitin’ my lip when I want to attack
I’m tryin’ to leave this shitty old town
I’m screamin’ inside but don’t make a sound.

 Conflicted addictions to love and to hate
To peace and to violence to choice and to fate
Spinnin’ me ‘round, don’t know whose gonna win
Searchin’ for courage before I give in….

To conflicted addictions -there’s no competition
It ain’t good or bad, it’s just my condition
We’re all faced with the same indecision
Thinking out loud - I need a revision

It's hard to stand out when I try to fit in
I dream about heaven while committing a sin
We sing about perfect love from above
I can't help but question when push comes to shove.
