Lyrics Love is Best - Head Wound City

Love is Best

There’s a fire every night that shakes me from my sleep
Puts a trouble, puts a fright into the corners of my dreams
It’s not the bats biting ankle to neck that kick me from my bed
But this strange premonition sending sparks through my head
There’s a fever every night, 60,000 degrees
Takes a torch to my mind, incinerates my dreams
It’s not the death knell ringing round the clock that’s giving me fits
But this sick sinking feeling turning my head to tricks
When it wraps you in its arms, holds you like a hex
Do you confess love is best?
When it spins a web around your sweet and tender neck
Do you confess love is best?
When it climbs into your thoughts, a thief upon the cross
Do you confess love is best?
When the tears like acid rain fill your eyes with doubt and pain
Do you confess love is best?
When it calls your name, holds your fingers to the flame
Do you confess love is best?
When it sees through all your plans, a vile hologram
Do you confess love is best?
What lesson did you learn that shined above the rest?
One, my son: love is best
Only one, my son: love is best
