And if you're hurting
I will replace the noise
With silence instead
Flushing out your head

If you like it violent
We can play rough and tumble
Fall into bed
And I won't breathe so you can recover

When you're in pieces
Just follow the echo of my voice
It's okay
Tune into that frequency

Don't fight your reflex
Embrace the instinct
You can feel your way
Through the bed and weak face in the end

'Cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'Cause them people never play the game

And we talk the talk
We communicate
And them people need love
Those people never play the game

Pleasure for pleasure
The tease is consequence
Enough for a fall
But I know you love to take a risk

The past is weakness
Don't beg the question
When the answer is war
There are moments when I'm overcome

'Cause it breaks my heart
That we live this way
I know people need love
'Cause them people never play the game

And we talk the talk
We communicate
Them people need love
Those people never play the game

And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
People need love

    I think the chorus is just so beautiful - and it's so true. The people that need love the most never take a chance and go for it. When I listen to this song I imagine a man trying to convince the woman he loves that the risk is worth taking. Strangely the lyric that really gets to me is the one I don't even understand - Don't beg the question when the answer is war. It doesn't really fit with the rest of my idea of what the songs about - but it goes so well.
