Love Is a Silent Thief lyrics

Love is a deep wound,

Love is a sharp knife

Love is a stranger

And love is a black light

Love makes you weary

Lovely to last right

Love should be locked up

Love is a parasite

I don’t wanna try and work it out

‘Cause it causes too much grief

It’s gonna tear you up and spit you out

Love is a silent thief

Love is a banquet

Of which we all feared

Hungry for me

There’s never enough to eat

Love causes blindness

Gives you a cold sweat

Love is a language

Without an alphabet

All I know is we can’t live without it

Falling over our feet

Slipping through our fingers as we try to catch

Love is a silent thief

Love is a dry mouth

Begging for water

But there’s only oil

It’s getting harder and harder

Love is a stopwatch

Broken and twisted

When it takes hold

It’s like you never existed

Here I go again for it, for it

That is my belief

My heart is open and I can’t defend it

Love is a silent thief
