What a jewel,  kind of happy I had never heard this until now. How this never made it to an album is utterly beyond me.

This song too is an unreleased B side that really deserved to be on an album, but i can see why they left it off the posthumous stuff, it touches a nerve with his death I think. I am obsessed with him. So sad he can't make music anymore.

True Love is a rose, behind glass
its locked and kept closed
maybe just to me cause my hearts been attacked
and shattered by tough love, bad love
so I bought mine of the street,
True Love man it just can't be beat
I felt so complete, married to heavenly bodies above
and each night I'd look up at a bright honey moon
cause it sure seemed built to last
even after my honeymoon past
I kept right with it man
like a ghost to a house it once haunted
day after day, i would steal with my true love away
to some hideout we left undisturbed we could do what we wanted
but i started to feel like a liar saying i love you
she was madly in love
and thatd mean there was no in between
it raised my alarm
I found i cant make a stand
Im her hired hand
I have to do harm
one day I got sick, she played me a nasty old trick
said I need ciggarettes walked down round the block called a cab
stayed gone for too long
my love had gotten so strong
just to try being back on my own i had to go to rehab
all i need is a safe place to bleed
is this where its at
half of no chance steps in the dance
rest of my life spent in combat
now im king of the ward
cause im good and i swallow my sword
and puke it out for the doctor
to write me a new prescription
tranquil as a dove people who have lost their true love
they all seem to fit the same description
I feel cold useless and old
i wish I was no one

take me home my love (lord?)
take me home today
take me out of this place
take me up with you today
