Is it cool

Is it cool with you that I pray to God
for Him to give me strength
to love you unconditionally?
Even your hate and your fear
your laughter and tears
they're all drawing me near
When your life falls apart
can I sit next to you
and enjoy the tragic art?
Because there's a peace in the pain
There's life in the rain
Only when everything's dismantled
can life start to change

"Its these times that I could kiss you
Its these times when youre asleep
Its these times you feel so dirty
Its these times you feel so cheap
Its these times when youre the loser
The times youre gabbing on the phone
Its these times youre singing love songs
Its these times youre all alone
Its these times when youre the victim
Its these times when youre the saint
Its these times when youre the bad guy
Whos inflicting all the pain
Its these times you sail the ocean
The times you wash up on the shore
Its these times you feed the hungry
Its these times you rob the poor
Its these times you burn the house down
Its these times youre getting burned
Its these times you do the right thing
Its these times you never learn
Its these times that you deny me
And ignore everything Ive done
Its these times you crucify me
Its these times youre still my son
Its these times I love you
Its these times I love you
Its these times I love you
Its these times I love you" ~the Normals
