Swans - Love Will Save You lyrics

rate me

Love will save you when the ocean splits itself in two

Love will save you when the cold wind blows right through you

Love will save you when the poison eats the precious air

And love will save you from the snake that crawls around down there

But it won't save me

Love will save you from the evil and the greed of ignorant men

And love will save you from the guilt you feel when you

Betray your only friend

Love will save you from yourself when you lose control

And love will save you from all the lies your lover ever told you

But it won't save me

Love will save you from the truth when you think you're free

Love will save you from the cold light of boring reality

Love will save you from the corruption of your lazy-minded soul

And love will save you from your selfish and distorted goals

But it won't save me

Love will save you from the black night and the lightning and the ghost

Love will save you from your misery, then tie you to the bloody post

Love will save you from the hands that pull you down beneath the sea

Love may save all you people, but it will never, never save me

No it won't save me
