Love is Stronger Than Death

 

Love Love Love
Love Love Love

Me & my friend were walking

In the cold light of mourning.

Tears may blind the eyes but the soul is not deceived

In this world even winter ain't what it seems.

Here come the blue skies Here comes springtime.

When the rivers run high & the tears run dry.

When everything that dies.

Shall rise.

LoveLoveLove is stronger than death.

LoveLoveLove is stronger than death.

In our lives we hunger for those we cannot touch.

All the thoughts unuttered & all the feelings unexpressed

Play upon our hearts like the mist upon our breath.

But, awoken by grief, our spirits speak

"How could you believe that the life within the seed

that grew arms that reached

And a heart that beat.

And lips that smiled

And eyes that cried.

Could ever die?"

Here come the blue skies Here comes springtime.

When the rivers run high & the tears run dry.

When everything that dies.

Shall rise.

LoveLoveLove is stronger than death.

LoveLoveLove is stronger than death.

Shall rise. Shall rise.

Shall rise. Shall rise.


Dogs of Lust

 

Here they come! The dogs of lust.

Out of my mind. Into my life.

Somebody should be here to hold me

Somebody should be here to show me, show me!

When you're lustful. When you're lonely.

& the heat is rising slowly.

I got it blue. I got it bad.

I got the sweetest sadness I ever had.

As the hours pass before my eyes.

As the hours pass before me.

when you're lustful. When you're lonely.

& the heat is rising slowly.

I keep reaching up

but they drag me back down

Wherever I try to hide

I will always be found

When you're lustful. When you're lonely.

& the heat is rising slowly.

Rising rising rising slowly

Rising rising rising

Rising rising slowly.


This Is The Day

Well... you didn't wake up this morning
Because you didn't go to bed.
You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red!

The calendar, on your wall, is ticking the days off.
The calendar on your wall is ticking the days off.

You've been reading some old letters
You smile and think how much you've changed.
All the money in the world
Couldn't buy back those days.

You pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes,
You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky.

This is the day your life will surely change.
This is the day when things fall into place

You could've done anything if you'd wanted
And all your friends and family think that you're lucky.
But the side of you they'll never see
Is when you're left alone with the memories
that hold your life together like glue

ou pull back the curtains, and the sun burns into your eyes,
You watch a plane flying across a clear blue sky.

This is the day your life will surely change.
This is the day when things fall into place

This is the day your life will surely change.
This is the day y
our life will surely change.
This is the day your life will surely change.
This is the day your life will surely change....
