Passion Pit - Love is Greed [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
You want a love, a love for us
You want a selfless love
That we can always say we trust, oh
Love has always been a mockery
Of those in love and scared to be lonely
Don’t wanna love, don’t wanna hurt
If all that loneliness requires
Is just another’s comfort
Better off being all on your own
Cause there's beauty in being alone
Today we're arguing it’s not worth making
Another person that's just yours for the taking
Or you’re hoping and praying
We’ll do more than saying that

[Hook]
Love, love, love
Love is just greed
It's almost taken me
But now I can see
Love, love, love
Love is just greed
A selfish little need
You follow or you lead
If we really love ourselves
How do you love somebody else?

[Verse 2]
A love to us, a love to them
It’s just a history repeating itself
Time and time again
Love is not a veil to hide your voice
All this talk of love just turns to noise
So you want love, a love so tough
That even all these truths don’t seem
As though they’re adding up, oh
Haven’t you already had enough
What's this suffering remind you of
Someday we’ll all agree, it’s not worth making
Another person that is yours for the taking
Or you’re hoping you’re praying
We’ll do more than saying that

[Hook]

[Bridge]
Love all gone is just another story
What’s gone sour once was glory, glorious
If it's romance you want then ask for it then
Honey could you put your arms around me slow
Tell me things about you that I wouldn’t know
And tell me that you love me like you do
And maybe I will too

[Hook]
