True Love Is Violent Lyrics

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 bruised
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
True love is violent
True love is violent, violent

Stirring in the sugar cubes of salt
Pollute to purify
Drowning in my body, mind, and thoughts
My mouth is dry

Tossed 'til we capsized
Battered and bruised
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
True love is violent
True love is violent, violent

After the storm
After the rain
I'm juvenile
I'm born again
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
True love is violent
True love is violent, violent

Need You (feat. VALLEY GIRL)

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 bruised
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
True love is violent
True love is violent, violent

Stirring in the sugar cubes of salt
Pollute to purify
Drowning in my body, mind, and thoughts
My mouth is dry

Tossed 'til we capsized
Battered and bruised
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
True love is violent
True love is violent, violent

After the storm
After the rain
I'm juvenile
I'm born again
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
True love is violent
True love is violent, violent

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
