Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All I do is sleep all day and think of you
The memory of a cushioned life I'm clinging too
The image of a mutual want, a haven
The sombre chords of our song, the fade in
[Verse 2]
Love is no big truth
Driven by our genes, we are simple, selfish beings
A symphony, that's you
Joyously awaking the ignorant and sleeping
[Verse 3]
Passion and its brother hate, they come and go
Could easily be made to stay for longer though
Many people play this game so willingly
Do I have to be like them or be lonely?
[Verse 4]
Love is no big truth
Driven by our genes, we are simple, selfish beings
A symphony, that's you
Joyously awaking the ignorant and sleeping
[Verse 5]
Another view of what there's two in
Getting you through it
[Verse 6]
I'll never need it again, not again, not again
I'll never need it again, not again, not again
I'll never need it again, not again, not again
I'll never need it again, not again, not again...
