What is one compared to another?
Do you not think they’re awake?
Why is only one called a lover?

Are the memories a sad reminder,
of the love you used to make?
What is one compared to another?

Wouldn’t you think one would understand the other?
Sharing more than just a heartache.
Why is only one called a lover?

One would hope this one isn’t a mother.
For there would be a child she wouldn’t let you take.
What is one compared to another?

She doesn’t understand how you love her.
But how could it be fake?
Why is only one called a lover?

Where is the honor,
you once vowed to never break?
What is one compared to another?
Why is only one called a lover?
