A Covenant of Thorns - Love Crooked Love lyrics

My heart beats out of time

With the constant pounding in my head

Fear, heartless fear

It pulls me away from my dying dreams of

Love, evil love

A constant craving to be heard

Time, wretched time

Has stolen away the only things I've ever held dear

I have never known love

I have wanted you all this time

And every time I try

I'm diving harder towards the ground

Oh, I think I can fly

But my heart has spun me upside-down

Love, crooked love

It drives a stake into the soul

Pain, precious pain

It's caused by those that we are the closest to

And I don't need your sympathy

To find my way

And all I've ever struggled for

Was love, crooked love

I have never known love

I have wanted you all this time

I have never know love

To be anything but a lie

I've hated you all my life
