Brooke Fraser - Brutal Romance lyrics

All shapes and colours Rolled and stained in aging hands Sculpted explosions Histories unfold Our Jackson Pollocked earth turns A silent witness Lonely as silent Poets bequeath best attempts Romanticising The brutality Of the ages and of us Avarice and lust Love and d**h, and d**h and love Brutal romance The silver thread, the sharpened knife A spinning slow-dance I can't remember before Warmth in the veins, lead in the core Brutal romance You're dripping with gold Mine is more interior Yours is sinking you Men at attention Devouring a drowning fleet Epaulettes of charm Love and d**h, and d**h and love Brutal romance A silver thread, a sharpened knife In a spinning slow-dance I can't remember before Breath in the lungs, blood on the door Brutal romance And I want to sing Over them and into them What can't be unsung And I want to sing Over you and into you What can't be unsung Love and d**h, and d**h and love Brutal romance A silver thread, a sharpened knife A spinning slow-dance I can't remember before Washing of wounds, won inner wars Brutal romance
