Leftmore - The Anarchist's Love Song Lyrics

Lonely I'd fallen into a forest of trees
Cold, scared, and naked with a head full of bees
And lovely you came in through a western clearing
Free as a warm wind with a head of honey
And I knew I hadn't made you from my ribs or my dreams
With not a thread on your back and just the sun on your knees

God damn, you were perfect
God damn what he'd do

Inventing a language I thought you might read
I brought my body closer to your body heat
Man may have made fire, but woman taught it to breathe
I may have thrown the sparks, but you were the leaves!
And we burned it all down and taught the stars how to write
A world warm and open with no fear of our skies
We created what we wanted, made love and made life
God knew it was true, he stayed so silent at night

God damn, you were perfect
God damn what he'd do

Later getting angry in a fit of jealousy
He packaged his wrath in his insecurity
And he made us in his image, gave us doubt and deceit
Said, "If you wanted Hell, well, you're comin' with me"
See I only made you 'cuz I was lonely
But you can't love each other, you're supposed to love me!

God damn, you were perfect
God damn what I do
God damn, you were perfect
God damn, what he'd do
