[Verse 1]
There's a man on the corner standing by the ATM
He needs a tenner to get home, but I don't believe him
He's got bloodshot eyes and whiskey on his breath
He says he has the message
True love knows no death
[Verse 2]
There's a woman at the skatepark with no shoes on
She's drinking white lightening and talking to herself
She's got sparrows in her hair and skaters in her bed
She has for me a message
True love knows no death
[Chorus]
Bruv, bruv
True love knows no death
I've seen him, I've seen him
True love knows no death
True love knows no death
I've seen him, I've seen him, I've seen him
[Bridge]
A place where the sky is hard (She said)
Where the ground is clear like the wind (She said)
We've been kissed and born again (She said)
By invisible tongues of flame (She said)
It's like pulling back the curtain (She said)
Like looking through shallow water (She said)
You need to know
You need to know
You need it, need it
Need it, need it, need it
Oh
[Verse 3]
There's a man with a husky sitting by the motorway
He's waiting for the green men to come take him again
When they come for him again, "Take your time," he will say
I carry for you the message
True love knows no death
[Verse 4]
There's a woman with a megaphone outside the station
She's talking hellfire and eternal damnation
Blaming Adam and Eve for all our misery
But we can be born again
True love knows no death
[Chorus]
Bruv, bruv
True love knows no death
I've seen him, I've seen him
True love knows no death
True love knows no death
I've seen him, I've seen him, I've seen him
[Bridge]
But when I get home
I forget what I've been shown
The words evade me
Go back to sleep in my spiderweb
So I light a candle
For all of those lost souls
Turn on my system
Go back to playing my Xbox
[Chorus]
Bruv, bruv
True love knows no death
I've seen him, I've seen him
True love knows no death
True love knows no death
I've seen him, I've seen him, I've seen him
