Tennis - Needle and a Knife lyrics
[Tennis - Needle and a Knife lyrics]
She works hard
Does it all without complaining
She believes that
Sacred things don't need explaining
And the mind is elevated
Though the body, devastated
The inner life of sweet sacrifice, yeah
Armed with nothing but a needle and a knife
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah
She foresees apocalyptic Earth split open
She believes
In something she can put her hope in
It's the holiest fixation
And it's taken cultivation
A pioneer in a foreign land, yeah
She's devoted to a real good man
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah
Does it all without complaining
She believes that
Sacred things don't need explaining
And the mind is elevated
Though the body, devastated
The inner life of sweet sacrifice, yeah
Armed with nothing but a needle and a knife
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah
She foresees apocalyptic Earth split open
She believes
In something she can put her hope in
It's the holiest fixation
And it's taken cultivation
A pioneer in a foreign land, yeah
She's devoted to a real good man
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah
