One simple phrase to tear us wide
                                                     apart
Make us writhe and squirm
                                              breathlessly
Three­ words to promise eternal hold
And leaving us aching, and sobbing to death

Make us writhe and squirm
                                               breathlessly
Pleading and crying for a reprieve
And leave us aching, and sobbing to
                                                           death
Ripped at the seams and naked

Pleading and crying for a repreive
As hostility becomes mundane
Ripped at the seams and naked
Lies the passionate monogamist

As hostility becomes mundane
Dual passions are fuelled by the
                                             state of  bliss
Lies the passionate monogamist
Cannot see for the rage

Many hear them...
Three words that promise eternal hold
"Divide and Conquer"
One simple phrase to tear us wide apart
