Love opens things
So love would hurt as much as heal
It would hurt first
until all you did was feel
Real love
would confuse, disarm, weaken, destroy
and seize... the... day...
along with everything in the way
of real love
Everything that was, in fact,
A part of you
Everything that was not true
and would conceal real love
Real love lasts forever
We do not last as long
until we become real love
when everything else is gone
Real love has come to town
Six guns blazing in a town full of lies
Now is the showdown and the duel in the street
Real love is the only thing standing
and it lays the world at your feet
Real love rides alone and...
squints out of one good eye
It nails the coffin shut
No one got out alive
and real love will always be
the one thing to survive
Real love is going to make you cry
Make it worse before it gets better
if you came along for the ride
It will tear you up inside
Real love lasts forever
We do not last as long
until we become real love
when everything else is gone
Real love...
Who would want such a thing?
It sucks the air out of the room
Breaks all your toys
Burns down your house
And steals your car
But you’re not... going... very... far
anyway...
Real love has got its hands on you
It burns from the inside out
and there is nothing left
for you to know about
Nothing but wide... wide prairie
And huge commanding stars
You’ve never been so alone
You’ve never been so complete
Outside this golden ring
The cities burn forever
And... you can never fall asleep
again…
Real love lasts forever
We do not last as long
until we become real love
when everything else is gone
