Audio: Share a song with powerful lyrics.

Fucking Brilliant.  And it was a lyric of the day about 6 weeks ago.

I just realized I haven't posted the LoD yet today.  Played this song a lot today while I was painting.  Not sure why other than it's a fucking brilliant song and in my top 5 of all time.  (So you get the whole thing.)

Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you,
Now,
You've got someone to blame?

You say
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night.
One love,
We get to share it.
It leaves you, baby,
If you don't care for it.

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love,
And you want me to go without.
Well, it's
Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light.
We're one
But we're not the same.
We get to carry each other
Carry each other.
One.

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head?

Did I ask too much?
More than a lot?
You gave me nothing
Now that's all I've got.
We're one
But we're not the same
Well, we hurt each other
Now we do it again.

You say love is a temple
Love, a higher law.
Love is a temple
Love the higher law.
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl.
And I can't be holdin' on to what you've got
When all you've got is hurt.

One love
One blood
One life, you've got to do what you should.
One life, with each other.
Sisters, brothers.
One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One.
- U2, "One"
