Music Go Music - Love, Violent Love lyrics

All over the earth The fire's in their eyes They're oddly compelled They're strangely mesmerized Nature's dark dreams raise their sordid head What black hearts beat in our chest They drift without love The lone beleaguered souls But when it arrives They spiral past control What angry ocean has swallowed us Pitched us out into the red Love, violent love – the hand of man is clenched in a fist How can I endure – can I live through this savage tryst Love, violent love – we live in smoke and walk in a daze But who would put out – the beautiful flame, the tenderest blaze They journey alone Their loveless hearts are cold Then spark turns to fire And pa**ion sears the soul Then, ere we safeguard our tender hearts Oh, what infernos will rage Love, violent love – we live in smoke and walk in a daze But who would put out - the beautiful flame, the tenderest blaze Love, violent love – the hand of man is clenched in a fist How can I endure – can I live through this savage tryst It hangs in the air Desire's desperate musk Cloying and stale Each breath so damp with lust See all the clouds of iniquity Billowing over the hills Love, violent love – we feel the burn in each pa**ing breath Love, violent love – how shocking a birth, how tragic a d**h Love, violent love – the hand of man is clenched in a fist How can I endure – can I live through this savage tryst Love, violent love – we live in smoke and walk in a daze But who would put out - the beautiful flame, the tenderest blaze
