Taking More and Giving Less
Jude Lyrics

He said I'm a lover not a fighter
I prioritize love and affection rather than violence and aggression

As he came into the room
Upon entering, the attention was drawn towards him

The people clapped and they laughed
The individuals present responded with humor and cheer

And they handed him a broom
They presented him with a simple task to endear him

She said we need a Superman
A figure with incredible strength and power can resolve our issues

To clean up all this mess ..
To rectify the current state of chaos and disorder

He slowly started taking off her dress
He initiated a physical intimate moment with her

He said I've started taking more and giving less
I'm becoming selfish and not reciprocating love and generosity properly

He was living in the city
He was residing within the limits of urban life

He was working with his hands
He used manual labor to earn his livelihood

He was feeling ugly beautiful
He was experiencing contradictions within self-image

So he gathered up a band
He assembled a group of musicians to form a band with him

And they played for all those Lucifers
They performed for those who are devilishly tempting and alluring

And he slapped away their hands
He pushed away their advances and efforts to exploit him

And he said you must confuse me with the rest
I am different from others and I won't fall for your tricks

I have started taking more and giving less
I'm becoming more self-centered and less giving in nature

He called her on the telephone
He initiated a communication through a phone call

And she said she'd take a plane
She agreed to travel by plane to reach him

He could not stand to be alone and to listen -to the rain
He was unwilling to be by himself and hear depressing sounds of the rain

So she drank up all his secrets
She acquired all his intimate details and vulnerabilities

And she kissed a way his pain
She distracted him from his sadness through physical affection

Addicting him to something dangerous
She became an unhealthy dependency for him

He had started taking more and giving less
He had become selfish and less generous in the relationship

My master now
My top priority and focus

Is my own happiness
Prioritizing my personal joy and contentment

Now he is a captain
He now holds a position of leadership and control

In his ship upon the sea
Traveling upon the vast and tumultuous ocean

Sailing it to anywhere
Going anywhere he desires without restrictions

That's where he wants to be
He is content in his current state of freedom and exploration

So where he goes is anybody's guess
His future and destination are uncertain and unpredictable

He has started taking more and giving less.
He has become more self-interested and less considerate of others
