I want to know what it's like to love
To love in a way that leaves me breathless
To love in a way that makes me weep
To love in a way that will last foreverTo love in a way that doesn't feel like a lie
To love in a way that doesn't feel like deceit
To love in a way that doesn't feel like entrapmentI want to know what it feels like to love
To love and be loved
To love and be happy
To love and be freeI want to know what it feels like to hate
To hate in a way that leaves my chest burning
To hate in a way that leaves my face hot
To hate in a way that puts tears in my eyesI want to know what the difference between love and lust is
I want to forget that there is no difference between hate and lust
I want to know what it's like to love
And if love is just hate in disguise
If that thin line was broken a long time ago
If hate had taken overI want to know what it's like to love
As hate is everlasting
But is love forever
