Song Description
This song is about observing people in society and how so many try to conform and appear tough on the exterior. However, I believe in acting from love all the time, regardless of how people think. Thus, my favorite 4-letter word is love.

Lyrics
Verse 1:
Sometimes I eaves-drop
To pass the time
And then I get
A little disappointed
Because everyone's just echoing the words
That I've heard
A thousand times before
Sometimes I like
To people watch for fun
But then it turns
Into an old re-run
And the sequel's only going backwards
When originality suffers
Chorus:
'Cause it's hard to find
The stimulating kind
That doesn't have to hide behind tougher words
If I ditched the herd
Would you call me absurd
'Cause my favorite 4-letter word is love
But it's hard to find
The stimulating kind
That doesn't have to hide behind tougher words
If I played my own beat
Would you think I'm weak
'Cause my favorite 4-letter word is love
Verse 2:
In the past I've met
Some beautiful girls
And they're gorgeous
Until they open their mouth
And start talking like
They're on a trashy talk show
And I'm stuck in fifth grade
It's like my old school elementary days
When the cool kids
Always had their nose in corners
Now I'm older
But it's still remaining the same
Would someone wake my brain
Chorus repeated
My favorite word is love (repeat 3 times)
