Oh, well it's hard to look deep into your soul.
Not everything you'll find will be perfect gold.
There are ghosts and demons that hide in the dark.
Oh, they wait till I find love and then the-e-y laugh.
Oh, they know that my body is no way good enough.
Know that my heart is no way strong enough
To bare the sorrow that love brings.
When i coil in fear, oh, the de-e-mons sing-
oh it's a hollow love for a heart with no blood in its veins.
Oh, there is no endless devotion,
that is free from the force of erosion.
Oh, and if you don't believe in God,
how can you believe in love?
When we're all just matter that will one day scatter,
when peaceful the world lays us down.
Oh and finding love is a matter of luck,
and unsettled lovers move from fuck to fuck.
Oh, and compare their achievements like discussing bereavements
And compare their abbrations with romantic quotations,
Oh, as peaceful, the world watches down.
But oh we were blown out of the water.
Oh, and we walk on the feet we have grown.
Oh And we were given a heart, of which love is a part.
Oh, and we cornered the thing from which all life will spring.
And it gave value to the world that surrounds us
But we consider the world just for a moment
Oh and its gone before we even know
Oh but ill follow it round yeah ill follow it round
Oh ill follow it round yeah ill follow it round
Till peaceful, the world lays me down
End on: G
