Love sneaks up to take you by surprise
You turn around and right before your eyes
Someone imperfect someone just right
Someone who dares you to realise
Everything is fate in retrospect
Some call it where history and coincidence intersect
But to notice and to dare take that ride is the thing
To hold your breath and dive right in
And then you think you’ll see each other through
The swirling push and shove of me and you
No one expects the sky to tear apart
Until they’re knee deep in the muck of broken hearts
When you think of everything that might have been
Now lying dead beneath the broken/poisoned tree
When all the anger burns down to dust
All thats left is an empty brittle crust
The scapular and the rosary
The sacred heart and the the lamb of peace
The Mother Marys hanging on our wall
I’m not much of a believer but how I begged then for a miracle
The scapular and the rosary
The sacred heart and the the fleur-de-lis
The Mother Marys hanging on our wall
I’m not much of a believer but I pray now to hear her call
When the night comes back again
The darkness calls up pointless/aimless rage
And all the words we’d saved for the years ahead
Twist and curdle inside my head
The scapular
the rosary
The sacred heart
the fleur-de-lis
The holy cross
The pure white dove
The slippery fish
Platonic/Eternal love
