Cohen’s Law

i’ll die this death
against my own will
but aren’t we all dying to die
just a little bit freer
a little bit less desperate for release
just a little bit more than
last year?

i’ll die this death
to bury this love
that’s not enough not enough
not enough for us

i’ll die this death
so there’s no more to life
than love

i’ll die and die again
as long as my heart restarts

what choice do i have when i breathe in
i have to let the air out

i can’t fill a full cup
I can’t carry all this love

i can only pray to die
and only dream to wake up.
