Love Is

An agony waiting for someone to tell you to shut up

But dont stop even if theres no moon to hold you

Or any other lifeless rock

I can tell you put all your hopes into the shoes you buy

Your loneliness has feet that walk its got wings that fly

And it does sing a song

Love doesnt belong to anyone

They dont see the coffin only the nails their lights

Too bright for your home movies

Theyll set you adrift disappointed and starving

But never as hungry as the sharks

Your desperate suit made out of puppet strings

Doesnt last very long

Desperate in the quiet

Youre sinking below mouthing the words to some

Old sixties song, a quiet song

Love doesnt belong to anyone

When youre finally silenced and led into alleys

And led into dark corners where no one can hear

Where what you say doesnt lead anywhere

But darker corners of your fear

There must be more to it

Than the pilgrims hateful dream of love and peace

I know Ive had that vision too

An old key on a rusty chain of keys

A key that turns you your whole life long

Love doesnt belong to anyone
