True Love is Violent

The surface of the water is serene

But what goes on below?

Hungry current sucking at your feet

It won't let go

Tossed 'til we capsized

Battered and brused

Say it's the last time

We know the truth

Don't know what you got until it's gone

Don't know what is right until it's wrong

Heaven could fall and angels swarm

But hell is ours to face

Ah-oh

True love is violent

Ah-oh

True love is violent, violent

Stirring in the sugar cubes of salt

Blue to purify

Drowning in my body, mind, and thoughts

My mouth is dry

Tossed 'til we capsized

Battered and brused

Say it's the last time

We know the truth

Don't know what you got until it's gone

Don't know what is right until it's wrong

Heaven could fall and angels swarm

But hell is ours to face

Ah-oh

True love is violent

Ah-oh

True love is violent, violent

After the storm

After the rain

I'm juvenile

I'm born again

(Ahh-ahh)

Don't know what you got until it's gone

Don't know what is right until it's wrong

Heaven could fall and angels swarm

But hell is ours to face

Ah-oh

True love is violent

Ah-oh

True love is violent, violent
