An agony waiting for someone to tell you to shut up But don't stop even if there's no moon to hold you Or any other lifeless rock I can tell you put all your hopes into the shoes you buy Your loneliness has feet that walk it's got wings that fly And it does sing a song Love doesn't belong to anyone
They don't see the coffin only the nails their lights Too bright for your home movies They'll set you adrift disappointed and starving But never as hungry as the sharks Your desperate suit made out of puppet strings doesn't last very long Desperate in the quiet you're sinking below mouthing the words to some Old sixties song, a quiet song Love doesn't belong to anyone
When you're finally silenced and led into alleys And led into dark corners where no one can hear Where what you say doesn't lead anywhere but darker corners of your fear There must be more to it than the pilgrim's hateful dream of love and peace I know I've had that vision too An old key on a rusty chain of keys A key that turns you your whole life long Love doesn't belong to anyone
