Letra de You are what you love

This is no great illusion
When I´m with you I´m looking for a ghost
Or invisible reasons
To fall out of love and run screaming from our home

Because we live in a house of mirrors
We see our fears and everything
Our songs, faces, and second hand clothes
But more and more we´re suffering
Not nobody, not a thousand beers
Will keep us from feeling so all alone

But you are what you love
And not what loves you back
That´s why I´m here on your doorstep
Pleading for you to take me back

The phone is a fine invention
It allows me to talk endlessly to you
About nothing disguising my intentions
Which I´m afraid, my friend, are wildly untrue

It´s a sleight of hand, a white soul band
The heart attacks I´m convinced I have
Every morning upon waking
To you I´m a symbol or a monument
Your rite of passage to fufillment
But I´m not yours for the taking

But you are what you love
And not what loves you back
So I guess that´s why you keep calling me back

I´m fraudulent, a thief at best
A coward who paints a bullshit canvas
Things that will never happen to me
But at arms length, it´s Tim who said
I´m good at it, I´ve mastered it
Avoiding, avoiding everything

But you are what you love, Tim
And not what loves you back
And I´m in love with illusions
So saw me in half
I´m in love with tricks
So pull another rabbit out of your hat
