CHEMICAL
My love is overdone, selfish and domineering
It won’t sit up on the shelf
So don’t try to reason with my love
My love is powerful, ruthless and unforgiving
It won’t think beyond itself
So don’t try to reason with my love
And when you pray, he will not answer
Although you may hear voices on your mind
They won’t be kind
My love won’t reason, loosen up the chains that bound you
Don’t try to reason with my love
My love is chemical, shallow and chauvinistic
It’s an arrogant display
So don’t try to reason with my love
And when you pray he will not answer
I know this, for I ask him all the time
To reassure my mind
My love won’t reason, loosen up the chains that bound you
My love won’t reason, break away the walls surrounding you
My love won’t reason, free you from the pain you’re captive by
Don’t try to reason with my love
