Love In A Cold World

Heart-break behind your eyes
And the crooked corners of a smile
Mysteries of distance
Rootless
Grown apart
Fresh Meat for the vulture mobs
Two headlights in a parking lot
Pulling away
Away..

Holding on to love in a cold world
I'm holding on to love
Crying out in a dead universe
I'm holding on to love

Caught in a lonely orbit
Of Saturn's shattered arms
Tumble horse and rider
Into shipwrecked beds
As if one fearless kiss could crush
this joy-burner's grasp
Compressing into dust

Holding on to love in a cold world
I'm holding on to love
Crying out in a dead universe
I'm holding on to love
