Captain Ahab Was Love
The sun is rising, it's the end of the last night
The dawn is breaking us into pieces of you and me
If this is what you truly desire, I'll do what I can to help you
But as you gather your records, your books, and your clothes I'll try to remind you:
That all this time, the only thing I've wanted to teach you...
Was Love
Was Love
You carried me on your shoulders, never let me fall
You screamed in my face with a passion that humbled me
I thought I was singing a song of peace, but I started a war
And now as I suffer before your anger, please try to realize:
That all my life, the only thing I wanted to teach you...
Was Love
Was Love
Was love the reason that everything fell apart?
Or were you and I the ones to blame?
No matter the cause, the only thing I wanted to teach you...
Was Love
Was Love
Was Love
Was Love
We stand together at the edge of time
Blame is meaningless
Life was meaningless
The only thing that ever existed...
