Requiem For Her Soul - Unique (What of Love) Lyrics

Our mind is a difference engine
The pleasure and pain we find within
In energy we see variance from before
Draw old reference from old memories we store
Happiness sorrow and disgust
Fear and lust
In sadness and in joy we trust
We know emotion from our past
Know how long they lasts
We fear the unknown with anxiety
But we seek variety

Emotions fade in time
What is present and what's behind
They have a gauge
They span from neutral to enraged
But they rest
But what of love and why is it unique
You could explain loves permanence
Not an emotion at its peak
Love is a state
Forged in fate
Found within a perfect mate
For us

From ancestors we store genetic memory
RNA writes inescapable fear of our legacy
We might run away from pain
Or fear the thunder and the pouring rain
Sight smell and touch
Taste and sight
In total darkness we cry for light
We know intense pain from our past
Know how long it lasts
We feared the unknown from each other
Is safety better than a lover

Emotions fade in time
What is present and what's behind
They have a gauge
They span from neutral to enraged
But they rest
But what of love and why is it unique
You could explain loves permanence
Not an emotion at its peak
Love is a state
Forged in fate
Found within a perfect mate
Like you

Sedated by experience we strive for the unique
Doomed to boredom new feelings that we seek
Pleasure finding pain avoid
With emotion we just try to fill a void
Heat cold and wet
Spice and our regret
In the end try to forget
We remember joy never lasts
Causes sorrow as it pasts
We avoid feelings we don't want to feel again
We seek new ones to obtain

Emotion burns like fuel until it's gone
Love is clever
No fuel needs to be drawn upon
Love is forever
A candle lights another without losing its flame
Giving all your love just gives you more again
Love isn't doomed to boredom
The passion only grows
Love isn't touch sensation
Something every lover knows
It's an eternal fascination
Of the soul

Emotions fade in time
What is present and what's behind
They have a gauge
They span from neutral to enraged
But they rest
But what of love and why is it unique
You could explain loves permanence
Not an emotion at its peak
Love is a state
Forged in fate
Found within a perfect mate
Like you

Love is not emotion it's a class of its own
I asked you what it meant and you said home
Love doesn't fade over time it grows
Too much love isn't something known
Warm safe and kind
Bold and strong
Its what you have
Not what you find
We know what this love is because our pasts
Know ours lasts
We have no fears this time through
No one loves like you

Emotions fade in time
What is present and what's behind
They have a gauge
They span from neutral to enraged
But they rest
But what of love and why is it unique
You could explain loves permanence
Not an emotion at its peak
Love is a state
Forged in fate
Found within a perfect mate
Like you
