Love Is

You fed it all the time
But it had grown so thin
A light the light can't find
A shadow wrapped in skin

Let it fall on you
Let it pin you down
Till you tell the truth

No matter what they say
There's no reward for pain
So if you asked for it
Don't ask for it again

Let it fall on you
Let it pin you down
Till you tell the truth

Careless what I wished for I did
But ruthless once I had a taste of it
If you lose it all to get it
That's a choice that you have made
And the beauty of a life above the law, love is the law

Here, here comes the age
Where forgiveness is a sin
If you're still so full of rage
That only poison lets you in
And don't forget it, and don't deny, what you saw
Love is the law, love is the law

Let it fall on you
Let it pin you down
Till you tell the truth

Let it fall on you
Let it pin you down
Till you tell the truth
