The Nature Of Love

The nature of love
 Love...
 love is like an open hand
 stings a little when it lands
 hold me closer
 hold me tighter
 hold me so damn close that my heart's on fire
 it's a fantasy
 it's a nightmare
 and the whole damn world is walking round in theirs
 I said love...
 love is like a razor blade
 double edge and double pain
 hold me closer
 hold me tighter
 when i rip your flesh and the pain is fresh
 it's a fantasy
 it's a nightmare
 and the whole damn world doesn't seem to care
 i said love...
 love is like a butcher knife
 double sharp for single lives
 hold me closer
 hold me tighter
 as the lights go out and we start to shout
 it's a fantasy
 it's a nightmare
 with a big black bruise and a handful of hair
 i said love...
