Pleasure and pain

Pleasure and pain
All in a mix
Like a cake mix in a bowl
You stir it up

To make it liquid
When we add tears
And pieces of ourselves
We stir it up....

Stir however we want
However we dream
But I don't like pain....
Give me pleasure instead....

Please
I want all the pleasures in the world....
Cos they give me butterflies
They make my soul feel warm
They got my spirit soar high....

No pain,
No sadness

Just love with joy
My heart can't take no aches....

Do you want pleasure, too?
All the pleasures in the world?
Love with joy?
Fuck pain....

Though reality is,
That we need pain to learn our lessons
Whatever it may be...
We need pain to go through somethin
The damages we suffer
It's another way to heal... and when we heal

We go back to pleasures....

I guess we gotta have both
Opposite...it makes us human
Even though I don't like heartache
My love....someone told me that love isn't
Suppose to be in pain....we hurt a lot...
Our fuckups hurt us so....

Somehow a few hours later or days ahead
We say I'm sorry....
We say we wanna be together forever
We feel what we feel in our hearts.....

And this is how
Pleasure and pain stir up in our own
Relationship bowl....
We go up and down and up again
Our love is imperfect
Yet it's still gorgeous
It's still brand new...
Never went out of style
When we first met....
