Stronger Than Love

by Rob Brezsny

I made it all up
Nothing was true
I made it all up just to tease you
I gave it away
Nothing was mine
I gave it all away to try to please you
And I never fought in Beirut or Danang
Never killed anyone to impress you
I did not save the world
I hope you understand
It's not easy to prove that I love you

(It's love) I'll change myself for you
(It's love) And there's nothing that I wouldn't do
(It's love) I will explode for you
Thunder and lightning all over the earth for you
Nothing is too good for you

I'll turn into an animal drive myself crazy
Light up like a bomb just to feel you
I'll sail submarines across the line of death
I'll give up my god just to heal you
Now I'm reading your mind and I know you're behind
The freedom I feel to surrender
And it's stronger than lust, more exotic than trust
I will prove that my love has no limits

(It's love) I'll change myself for you
(It's love) And there's nothing that I wouldn't do
(It's love) I will explode for you
Thunder and lightning, fire and ice
Money and fighting all over the earth for you
Nothing is too good for you

(The prophecy says that when all hope is gone the real
fun will finally begin Now I'm losing myself in your
beautiful hell while I'm dreaming up bigger better
more original sins If this is rehearsal for the end
of the world then I'm hopeful that you'll recognize
me as the man of your dreams and the father of all your angels)

(It's love) I'll change myself for you
(It's love) And there's nothing that I wouldn't do
(It's love) I will explode for you
Thunder and lightning, fire and ice
Money and fighting all over the earth for you
Nothing is ever tabu
