Lyrics

[Verse 1] Long spears of silence, public space, electric light We landed on the coast of Alabama, ocean of leather, violent night The sea was the color of lead, and the sky the color of smoke And the circles of the moon keep vibrating, keeps vibrating [Verse 2] Moon sliced like a lime, a smooth green disc Black sunset burned in your eyes a saline mist Cool stars the color of ice, dark water, never darker than this And the gentle coast keeps vibrating, keeps vibrating [Chorus] When love lеaned on us, it fell like an axе, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe, yeah, yeah, yeah [Verse 3] Two horses racing each other in a fist of fog There was blood on this beach and in the mood that wove itself between us all We grip the night like prophets honey, one might call it holding on The unholy ghosts keep vibrating, keep vibrating [Verse 4] And when the slow wind is strumming our bodies like a cheap guitar When the freshly woken daylight meets the gentle wavelength of the human pause Under these muted seagulls and the soft hands of the sun Man, the silence, it will crush you like the lowest vibration [Chorus] When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe, girl When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe, yeah, yeah, yeah [Bridge] Are we ever qualified baby? Tell me if I'm qualified baby, please Am I ever qualified? Are we ever qualified baby, please [Chorus] When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe, girl When love leaned on us, it fell like an axe, yeah, yeah, yeah
