1 2 I Love You - Peel Session 1982

Wallpaper pattern
Took over the room
Crawled off the walls
And squatted in the gloom
Didn't know what to say
Prophesize a brand new day

But each time that I look at you
(Look at my hands!)
My body burns with anger
(Relentless)
Every time I try to speak
Paralysis of anger
(I love)

We take it nice & slow
Buried ashes start to glow
Didn't know, didn't feel the cold
Couldn't see we're growing old

The thin black thread breaks in my head
& I'm alive with anger
(Look at my hands!)
Your body cracks like glass & I'm
Dragged down by waves of anger
(I love you)

Why?

(Anger)

Whеre's the seeker of wisdom & truth
Childrеn know what nettles do!
Ah, holy text, infernal breeze
Cut the children down

There's no explosion
Without corrosion
To sear away my heart
(Look at my hands!)

I love you!
