Love is a Temple, Love is a Higher Law
The beast gazed unto me, eyes ablaze in the shadow. And I said, “I’m the one.”
“I’m the one you need.”
Sprung from so deep in the earth
You can feel it breathing
Drown so deep into the water
You swam for hours to see the sun
Well, you son of a gun
I’ll pull you back in
Stand up on higher ground
And reach out again
Lovely spirit so deep inside my body
You can feel it humming
Lifted so high from the ground
You can see the galaxy before it’s born
Hurt my heart! Cut me deep and don’t look back!
I’m the one you need
I’m the one you need
Gifted to the highest power
You leave the pain behind
As you seek lives to devour
You leave the slain behind
Well, you son of a gun
I’ll leave my life
And you’ll push me back in
And reach out again
Lonely spirit so far away
You can not reach it
But to push it away
You can see a glimmer of the pain you caused
Then you push it away
Still, I’m the one you need
I’m the one you need
“I’m the one you need.”
