[Verse 1]
She works hard
Does it all without complaining
She believes that
Sacred things don't need explaining
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah
[Verse 2]
She foresees
Apocalyptic Earth split open
She believes
In something she can put her hope in
[Pre-Chorus 2]
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
[Chorus]
Only a lonely love can devour you
But when you're lonely the same love
Empowers you, yeah
