love needs love

desecrate the grave

tip the stone over

smite the impotent guardian

dig up and rape those crooked bones

it's sad when love needs love

somewhere something is broken

there isn't a blade of grass

that hasn't been corrupted

if blood turned into slabs

we'd live on stone islands

it's sad when love needs love

somewhere something is broken

it's sad that love needs love

and clandestine runes bespoken

hardscrabble roles

groundswell is useless

incremental

wrecked motivation

it's sad when love needs love

somewhere something is broken

it's sad that love needs love

and clandestine runes bespoken

whilst it's burning alive inside

like a portrait somewhere in flames

alone we fall in place

with heads down and arms folded

it's sad when love needs love

somewhere something is broken
