Oh Land - Love A Man Dead lyrics

I can love a man dead I can love a man dead She can love a man dead She can love a man dead There is a dark horse living in my hood I’m sure you’ve walked past him changing your mood He is a slow worker, down in every detail He is a chameleon always blending in That’s what his girls are - fuel on his engine A carnivore, hate him like you never loved someone before Makes his shadow soak up your sunshine He will get you in his car and then he locks the door No need, no need to run Throw in the towels, drop your gun My heart is my only weapon I can love a man dead No need, no need to hide Throw in the towels, stop the fight My heart is my only weapon I can love a man dead I can love a man dead I can love a man dead She can love a man dead She can love a man dead Now he is scouting walking round the block What kinda sad people, people do that He had a baby sister Didn’t know much about her But the way you look at him Makes him feel she is living Now he’s a stray dog I’m the bone who can make him feel at home A loner, doesn’t know what it means when you say no Tears taught him everything you love, you will lose He is making up his truth in a web of disillusions [Chorus] We were taught and raised to believe that man is kind But love has many faces and some of them are blind [Chorus] We’re born, we’re raised to believe Human is kind We’re young, we’re free to believe Strong in our minds
