lyrics

LOVE IS THE LAW


When the last cathedral crumbles
And the monuments to superstition fall
The priests in robes and collars
Clutching collection plate dollars
Will know love is the law

When the laboratories go dark and the server farm shuts down
Lab coats hung on the wall
When all experiments are done
The final algorithm is run
The results say: love is the law

Lady Justice at the door of the courthouse
Her blindfold drops - her eyes open wide in awe
As the scale falls and shatters
She sees nothing else matters
Because love is the law

There’s blood on the streets of the city
But there’s hope where there should be none at all
And they still whisper stories
Of coming glory
Because they believe love is the law

See the refugee, outcast, and orphan
The weary wanderer - his back against the wall
Open the gate
Before it’s too late
If you believe love is the law

I had a dark dream like some Hieronymus Bosch vision
All humanity swallowed in the devils open jaw
Raise your voice, your pen, your guitar
Wherever you are
And shout, "Love is the law!"

I tell you sometimes I’m tempted
To take a swan dive into the black emptiness of it all
Here comes that diamond shine
In my little girl's eyes
That says love is the law

My guiding light - a beacon in the night
Love is...love is the law
