Scary Love

What is love, my love?

Tell me, do you know?

To me it’s dirt and blood and seed

That's how my garden grows

What is this pain inside my veins?

It turned to frost

Is there an operation please?

And how much does it cost?

This love is a scary love

If I had one day left to live

I’d lock the doors and windows and keep you in

If I had one day left to live

I'd wrap myself around you and breathe you in

Scary love, it's a scary love

What is love, my love?

Tell me why it burns?

Like rage and fire inside of me

It causes no concern

I'm quite used to it

The ashes on my hands

At least I've felt the pain of love

What no one understands

This love is a scary love

If I had one day left to live

I'd lock the doors and windows and keep you in

If I had one day left to live

I'd wrap myself around you and breathe you in

This love is a scary love

Like birds in place of doves

Clenched fist in a velvet glove

Like a train running over us

Like being nailed to a cross

If I had one day left to live

If I had one I'd keep you in, I'd keep you in

If I had one more day left to live

I'd wrap myself around you and breathe you in
