≠LOVE (This is Not Love)

Written by Sködt McNalty & Tara Rice

Status is imagination
A make-believe evocation
To compare
A media veil
A glamour I didn’t want to wear
Leave me to my dreams
My own answers
This isn’t love

Charmed as it may seem
(when I wake I feel)
This is not my dream
(the gap between me and everything)
Making it seem
(love is)
That sleep’s
(a star a million miles away)
A million…

Mother, she taught you how to hustle
Daddy taught you to use your muscle
And you burned what you learned
Leave me to my dreams
My own answers
This isn’t love

Here’s the line
Here’s a dangerous mind
It’s all media
A fashion flair
A glamour that I didn’t want to wear
