What is love but the strangest of feelings? A sin you swallow for the rest of your life? You've been looking for someone to believe in To love you, until your eyes run dry She lives on disillusion road We go where the wild blood flows On our bodies we share the same scar Love me, wherever you are How do you love with fate full of rust? How do you turn what the savage take? You've been looking for someone you can trust To love you, again and again How do you love in a house without feelings? How do you turn what that savage take? I've been looking for someone to believe in Love me, again and again She lives by disillusions close We go where the wild blood flows On our bodies, we share the same scar How do you love on a night without feelings? She says 'love, I hear sound, I see fury' She says 'love's not a hostile condition' Love me, wherever you are Love me, wherever you are Love me, wherever you are Wherever you are
