Love Will Save You - Swans

Love will save you

When the ocean splits itself in two

Love will save you

When the cold wind blows right through you

And love will save you

When the poison eats the precious air

And love will save you

From the snake that crawls around down there

But it won’t save me

Now love will save you

From the evil and the greed of ignorant men

And love will save you

From the guilt you feel when you betray your only friend

And love will save you

From yourself when you lose control

And love will save you

From all the lies your lover told you

But it won’t save me

And love will save you

From the truth when you think you’re free

And love will save you

From the cold light of boring reality

And love will save you

From the corruption of your lazy-minded soul

And love will save you

From your selfish and distorted goals

But it won’t save…

Love will save you

From the black night and the lightning and the ghost

And love will save you

From your misery, then tie you to the bloody post

And love will save you

From the hands that pull you down beneath the sea

And love may save all you people

But it will never, never save me

No, it won’t save

Me
