What is love without violence
Not the kind you'd ever see
The killing beneath the silence
Murder of the last degree
And when the angels blow their trumpets
It's like they're calling out to me
Let's pretend that love is timeless
It's how you wanted it to be
What is war without surrender
Does it even have a name
A face the artist can render
Even if it's drawn in flame
And from an unknown sender
This unholy child came
Could the doctor tell its gender
When they are both the same
Have you ever scratched the surface
Just to see if it would bleed
Did it serve another purpose
Or fulfill some kind of need
Were you carving out a promise
In your flesh, for me to read
It won't do you any service
Only scars are guaranteed
What's a forest without pollution
They tell me it's never rained
Do the stars have a solution
For the river that's been drained
And a dwarf lies in seclusion
Oh, he knows that he's been framed
I don't think it's some delusion
For his hands were never stained
What is patience without a candle
I hold it in my hand
While the other tries to gamble
With the coin our keepers banned
You light a fire as a signal
That you almost understand
That it's not some kind of scandal
It's exactly as we planned
To the one who visits nightly
Who are you without a cause
Does this stranger touch you lightly
With the cold side of his paws
And when he grabs your arm so tightly
As you try to learn his laws
Will your skin glow, oh so brightly
In the way it always does
What is time without a message
For those who couldn't last
You miss the meaning of a passage
By reading it too fast
I recite these lines upon your stage
As an extra in your cast
Now walk with me across the bridge
That leads us to the past
What is love without violence
Not the kind you'd ever see
The killing beneath the silence
Murder of the last degree
And when the angels blow their trumpets
It's like they're calling out to me
Let's pretend that love is timeless
It's how you wanted it to be
