"In the dark times
Will there also be singing?
Yes, there will also be singing.
About the dark times."
- Bertholt Brecht
lyrics
Last night I dreamt we were wet
and I drank clear water from your flesh
and that thirst we've had since birth
was finally quenched.
So baby don't cry on the floor,
your tears mean more to me than gold.
If the truth be told,
I want to make a man bleed
for each drop of saline.
I need you to know
yes I want to take you home
'cause I want to watch
as your joy unfolds.
You're probably right.
This don't need to last another night.
You're probably right,
let's not hurt ourselves this time.
love is like knives
love is like knives
love is like knives
I need you to know
that yes I want to take you home
because I want to watch
as your joy unfolds.
I know that I am a sentimental fool.
I know that I am a simple-minded fool.
But your heart was bruised by
people that were cruel
honey, people are cruel.
people are cruel
people are cruel
darling know that
people are cruel
people are cruel
people are cruel.
