Chords for The Lies of Love - Rusty Cage

As the title of this song so clearly dictates, this is not a love song, but more of something
that I wrote to serve as my interpretation of why it is that us humans so desperately
cling to the existence of ideas such as love.
I hope you enjoy the music.
[C#] _

_ _ _ [F#] _ [G#] _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [A#m] _
_ _ _ [F#] _ [G#] _ _ [C#] It's true that sometimes intuition [F] ties the blinding [Fm] folds
[A#m] To contemplate not what but why [F#] the way the mind [G#] will go
[C#] Sometimes it plays the heart, it's [F] so lovely at the start
[A#m] But when the walls come crashing down, [F#] I take [G#] it all apart
[C#] And rise my jaded [G#] cynicism, [F] analyzing [Fm] criticism
[A#m] Every thought so skeptical, [F#] no [G#] mysteries are left at all
[C#] No silly romance fantasies [F] are really how they're hoped [Fm] to be
[A#m] No, this is not a song of love, [F#] just so [G#] damn reminiscent of [C#] it all
Oh, [A#m] intention, _ when [F#] you leave these things behind
I [G#] can't open up my mind [C#] at all
Oh, [A#m] intention, _ well [F#] I know, I know that love ain't real
But [F#m] I can't deny the way I feel [C#] and I'd like to say
[G#] I'll find a day [A#m] when no more will [F] I feel this [F#] way
And if I'm never very well, [G#] but only test of time can tell
[C#] And there's a moment and then [G#] it's gone, [A#m] but never for [F] too very long
[F#] No, this is not a song of love, [G#] just so damn reminiscent [C#] of it all
[G#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _ The fight to strive, genetic drive, [F] those early days of man
_ [A#m]
Replication, then survive, [F#] to act not [G#] understand
[C#] For every lost potential mother [F] kills you from within
[A#m] For fear of life's own preservation [F#] starts to [G#] settle in
[C#] I know it gets confusing and [F] I know it's worth a try
[A#m] When instinct tells you how to act, [F#] but just won't tell [G#] you why
And [C#] as single souls are drawn [F] together, passionate and [C] blind
Just keep [G] this simple thought [F#] in mind, that love is just [G#] a concept for [C#] the time
_ [A#m] Oh, intention, _ when [F#] you leave these things behind
I [G#] can't open up my mind [C#] at all
Oh, [A#m] intention, _ well [F#] I know, I know that love ain't real
But [F#m] I can't deny the way [C#] I feel and I'd like to say
[G#] I'll find a day [A#m] when no more will [F] I feel this way
[F#] And if I never very well, [G#] would only test the time
[C#] Consoling those a moment [G#] and then it's gone, [A#m] but never for [F] too very long
[F#] No, this is not a song of love, [F#m] just so damn [G#] reminiscent of [C#] it all
Oh, [A#m] and blind, _ _ [F#] _
_ such [G#] is life
[Fm] _ [C#] _
Though [A#m] excel _ _ [F#] for _ all [G#] is well
_ [C#] _
_ Oh, [A#m] intention, _ when [F#] you leave these things behind
I [G#] can't open up my mind [C#] at all
Oh, [A#m] intention, _ oh [F#] no, this is not a song of love
Just so damn reminiscent [C#] of it all _ _ _ _ _ _
