Like capitalism It works like unrequited love that way It never rests Just like I need the love I'm not getting from you And all the people in the world Are between you and I in that way And in the way of love You must be disgusted But I need to keep writing because everything else is death I'm self-sufficient, mad, endlessly producing I don't need money, I just need your love Or your approval, anything Like capitalism It works like unrequited love that way It never rests Just like I need the love I'm not getting from you And all the people in the world Are between you and I in that way And in the way of love Any sign is a promise of love, of being exposed A stage ritual undressing taking a place of consumation I'm here writing, working, making myself Available for love Making myself available for love Because I love you Because I love you Because I love you I just need a sign Any recognition is a reward Because I love you
