Divorce Song

You hitch the love train when it comes by,
But you still ain't learned that it never stops
Final destination is nothing more
Than a rocky cliff and a bottomless drop
You've only learned now what is what,
But can you do it right? Can you set your guard?
Can you make out love from what is not,
Love is easy don't make it hard

She was his savior so long ago,
When life was still just an empty hole
To be filled with love and fire,
Desire and booze, heart and soul
They would soon know that love was hard,
When it's haunted by ego and a little bit of pain
It'll give you diamonds but it holds your heart,
Feeds your wisdom becomes a chain

If it makes sense, why does it hurt?
It could take ten years to make this whole thing work
We were so in love, where did we go wrong?
I don't want to be right, I want to move on

Sometimes diamonds can still feel rough,
Coming from cole can be pretty tough
Just sit back and let them be,
Give them time and room and give them enough
Of everything they seem to need,
To see us in peace so that they can be free
To love to live to hope to dream,
What'd projection do to you and me?

I'm not afraid of getting old,
But I am afraid of the hurt to come
When I see those diamonds I behold,
Their gift of life already begun
Be smart be love be peace, let's cut it out,
Let's do it right let's be friends
Drive a wedge of love through our Waterloo of pain,
So that theirs, so that theirs can end

But if it makes sense, why does it hurt?
It could take ten years to make this whole think work
If we were so in love, where did we go wrong?
I don't want to be right, I just want to live on
