lyrics

BECAUSEwe’ve tasted shame like a vaccine
in the bible in the papers in the sand
and time trickles away in the watches
we each wear like a chain on our hand

I need love more than home or money
Only yes can now stem the tide
before night closes on us like quicksand
and we stay forever apart

BECAUSE fear flows in our blood like plasma
on the borders in our pockets in our beds
and time races like a train with no stations
to a desert at the end of the track

We need love more than hope or memory
Only yes can now turn the tide
before history burns our bodies like dry leaves
beneath the cold gaze of the stars Cm6
