Linus’s Blanket - Labor¹ in Vain

Linus’s Blanket - Labor in Vain

More than anything I like you better than CIGARETTES
Needless to say, I won't be happy again

What do you believe? Is that your god or your puppy dog?
I'm starting to get mad. And fedding up with pretence²

You can't afford to give the love I want
You hide your smile behind sarcastic³ sayings

Closed when I am saying
They might be opened if I betray

Love is just LABOR IN VAIN!
SO INSANE

It's LABOR IN VAIN, LOVE IS JUST LABOR IN VAIN, LABOR IN VAIN!
