Claddagh - The Tossers

If your reactions are reflecting immediate gratification
Will you be happy continuing the way you begun
For If you're not already happy
Then sadness may be all you have ever known
And you'll just have to learn to live with it within
Or you'll have to learn to change and begin again
Well This ring I have shown you
It means I love you there is no one above you
You are closer to me than a friend
And this ring I have shown you means
I don't own you but I know our love can last 'til the end
When you reflect someone else's life
Well that can cause all strife
When there was nothing but domineering fighting when you were young
So your relationship must work
Because your parents and you are a failure
So to spite them you live through them
Showing them that yours is strong
But then how did you get here
This attraction to this one here
The one it seems can never live up or is right
You're embarrassing and hating yourself more
But yet this feeling is familiar
When you're raised in anxiety do you truly think
That it's happiness that steers your sight
Humility is learning to be sad anxious and yearning
To shut up and not believe that you deserve
Anything you can't do for yourself
And never being too selfish to demand to be happy or to be served
There is no reason to think that one person can satisfy you in every way of life
It's only society that tells you that that's the way that is true
It takes strength to be alone
But your life could be more if you don't always conform
You're already in love with more than one person
Although you may not think you can be
For old loves reside most mostly in our memories
But the fondness remains and it's still to them you would see
This ring is a promise I am making to you
To endeavor myself and sing for you
To be happy and discover anyway I can try
So my heart and friendship can stay true
Cause my loyalty lies with you
And my love it will last 'til the end of time
