lyrics

You don’t have to say a word
Love is terrifying
And anymore,
The babble we hold has been getting old
What’s the use in lying?

Do we like the way it hurts
When we’re alone, hiding?
All on our way to another place
Living this way what’s the use in dying?

(We speak not a word, just lying in each other’s presence in ecstasy)

You don’t have to say a word
You can pacify me another way
The tongue is for taste
No need to waste it, what’s the use in speaking?

Ooh, I’ve got too much to say
But you won’t understand me anyway
And, anyway, it’s better this way
Huh? Nothing. No reason…

(Eventually, the beautiful dream fades. The last thing I hear before waking is the singing of angels and the faint scratch of the needle of my mind tracing the familiar groove of loneliness)
