Lyrics What You Do for Love - Skunk Anansie

What You Do for Love

Try and step into my life
Step into a life
Where you hold nothing but your fire
Try to sooth a face, my face
Unfazed by wicked shame
No shoulders ache from blame
Just incandescent rage
I’m looking for the fight
Desperation bites
Suckered by no fantasy
It’s what you do for love
No, I don’t understand
What you do for love
No, I can’t understand
What you do for love
Try and see another side
See yourself in her, in him, in them
You’d scream for rights
In your hands you hold the tools
To crush this vicious tide
With callouses like hide
Resistance detonates inside
We’re looking for the fight
Waking up dead minds
Suckered by reality
It’s what you do for love
No, I don’t understand
What you do for love
No, I can’t understand
What you do for love
No, I can’t understand
What you do for love
Love
Comically abused
Cliché overused
Do anything to prove
It’s what you do for love
It’s what you do for love
And I can’t understand
What you do for love
No, I can’t understand
What you do for love
No, I don’t understand
What you do for love
No, I can’t understand
What you do for love
