Brutal Romance

Lyrics

[Verse 1] All shapes and colours Rolled in stained and ageing hands Sculpted explosions Histories unfold Our Jackson Pollocked earth turns A silent witness [Verse 2] Lonely asylumed Poets bequeath best attempts Romanticising The brutality Of the ages and of us Avarice and lust [Chorus] Love and death and death and love Brutal romance A silver thread, a sharpened knife A spinning slow dance I can't remember before Warm in the veins Lead in the core Brutal romance [Verse 3] You're dripping with gold Mine is more interior Yours is sinking you Men at attention Devouring a drowning fleet Epaulettes of charm [Chorus] Love and death and death and love Brutal romance A silver thread, a sharpened knife In a spinning slow dance I can't remember before Breath in the lungs Blood on the door Brutal romance [Bridge] And I want to sing over them and into them what can't be unsung And I want to sing over you and into you what can't be unsung [Chorus] Love and death and death and love Brutal romance A silver thread, a sharpened knife A spinning slow dance I can't remember before Washing of wounds Won inner wars Brutal romance
