the love we make

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

heartbreak comes from the wild blue yonder
disguised as a beautiful friend
sweet honey dripping from those lips
she's lying to us baby again

Bloodhounds bark but they rarely bite
they lead you to the thief coming in the night
it's up to me to put up a noble fight
i'm freezing in this "Idiot wind"..

you can bend bend bend,
but you better not break
or it'll be the end end end
of the love you make..

Jake told me that he tried to put down the bottle,
he tried to throw away the pills
but the boredom and the shakes kept screaming his name
so he fell in for another swim

now he's drowning in the lies of self deception
his wife is filing for divorce
sees his children every other weekend
addiction is a terrible force

 

you can bend bend bend,
but you better not break
or it'll be the end end end
of the love you make

 

the darkness is never far from the light
one choice will lead you deep into the nebulous night
redemption's calling out from the other side
"how low will they have to go, till the blind desire their sight?"

 

we can bend bend bend,
but we better not break
or it'll be the end end end
of the love we make
