I know of love by the things I didn't do, And I know your body by the cloth that's on you. I know the truth and I know it my way, So don't light my fire, it will lead you astray.
Dive in the water if it's not from my sea, Dive in it deeper so you don't drown with me. Dive in the water and swim in it alone, For all the bubbles at my surface are gone.
And all the sirens sang "Amen". And all the people sang again.
I know of love by the names on the stem, And I know of freedom by the trees under them. I know of truth and I believe she's strong, So don't light my fire if you can't burn along.
Nobody stays unless they lose their mind, After the heartquakes, what is it that I'll find ? You can walk on my earth but walk on it alone, For each step that you take will be crushing my bones.
It's not a fear if it can't do us harm, We're not the victims as there's life in our arms, It ain't a crime if there's no bleeding hand, It's not a victory if we die at the end.
And all the lovers sang "Amen", And all the people sang again.
