"Love Needs Love" lyrics

Desecrate the grave
Tip the stone over
Smite the impotent guardian
Dig up and rape those crooked bones

It's sad when love needs love
Somewhere something is broken

There isn't a blade of grass
That hasn't been corrupted
If blood turned into slabs (when split)
We'd live on stone islands

It's sad when love needs love
Somewhere something is broken
It's sad that love needs love
And clandestine runes bespoken

Hardscrabble roles
Groundswell is useless
Incremental
Wrecked motivation

It's sad when love needs love
Somewhere something is broken
It's sad that love needs love
And clandestine runes bespoken

Whilst it's burning alive inside
Like a portrait somewhere in flames
Alone we fall in place
With heads down and arms folded

It's sad when love needs love
Somewhere something is broken
