This Is New Love Lyrics

We are strangers here
I suppose
We are not welcome
Or so I’m told.
We are not old friends
But believe this,
We can be nightmares.

Picture the man when the heartbeat stops
This is new love.

We are the hunters,
So one by one
You know we’ll find you.

Picture the man when the heartbeat stops

These boys of passion
Will rule the world
Put their fingers in a dyke
Well you know it’s what she needed.
These boys of passion
With cruel idiot smiles
Fight for you.
You know, they said so.

Cold fascination
With dead sound.
Oh God let me sleep
Forever.

Picture the man when the heartbeat stops

"Picture the man when the heartbeat stops"

This lyric was earlier used near the end of the unreleased track "Gangster Strut", a song recorded during the making of the album "Warriors". "Gangster Strut" later appeared as a bonus track titled "Nameless and Forgotten" on "Warriors" 2002 re-release.

Some might call it laziness, but I think reusing lyrics here and there gives a little treat for the fans who are listening closely, and helps bind the themes into a cohesive whole. Something's wrong... ;)

Might be a stretch but I think this song is about how people are just douchebags now. "the new love". Womanizing idiots who think they care.. either that or it's about gay guys. lol
