ALL BUT LOVE IS REAL

Words & Music by Robert McKean

Well I made it to the party
But I almost took a fall
I got caught with no possessions
And I painted on the walls

I was into Deuteronomy
Moses had it right
Better to be used by sin
Than lead a wasted life

Smiling to the silkscreen
I painted on my life
I hear a shout from down below
But no one shouted right

Up above it’s quiet
Down below there’s life
I’ll burn the mask of history
But I won’t see the light

In between Geronimo
And mother’s lonely touch
I feel this sense of sympathy
I wish I could blush

I’ve read between the oracles
I’ve seen many signs
I’ve looked beneath the rocks and dirt
I’ve had my designs

Stop and stare at what you dare
To call your residence
Speculation violation
Choose your evidence

All but love is real
All but love is real
All but love is real
It’s real as you feel
All but love is real

Get behind or get in line
I’m finished burning light

All but love is real
You should try it sometime
