Tell me about your love, baby, and Ill pretend that you don’t care.

Spill for me your heart out and Ill drink from your despair.

Come to me with all your pain and sorrow.

If you think its bad today, wait for tomorrow.

You’re so clean.

But It don’t mean nothing.

Its just about the stories that we all must bring.

If you’re living today, well, it aint worth dying.

But, if you got some love — well,

aint it worth lying for your love?

You got to

lie for your love.

The truth just aint enough, you got to get down

and play the game,

though it might seem insane.

The truth might be tough

until you got to lie for your love.

Did I say lie?

I meant lay.

You got to go if you want to stay.

You got to get hurt if you want to pray.

You got to bring on the night to bring on the day.

You got to come to believe through pain and sorrow.

If you think thats bad

then just wait for tomorrow.

You’re so clean.

But it don’t mean nothing.

Just tout the stories you bring.

Live for today – it aint worth dying.

You got some love,

aint it worth lying for your love?

About this blog

Essays in mental health philosophy—less “tips,” more why things work (or don’t). I look at the first principles under therapy, psychiatry, psychology, and everyday life, and occasionally share notes from papers and books-in-progress.

This space stands alongside—not inside—my counseling practice. If you’re seeking therapy in Colorado, there’s a link in the footer.
