Not Even an Animal

Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken
If you want to make sure of keeping it intact
you must give it to no one
No, no, no, no, no, no one, not even an animal
No, no, no, no, no, no one, not even an animal

So wrap it carefully round with your hobbies and your little luxuries
Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfish, selfishness
And give it to

No, no, no, no, no, no one, not even an animal
No, no, no, no, no, no one, not even an animal

But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change
It will not be broken
It will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable because

To, love is to
Be, vulnerable
To, love is to
Be, vulnerable

And I wrote this song
Because I thought
That you should know
Before you choose
And I wrote this song
Because I thought
That you should know
Before you choose, to give it to

No, no, no, no, no, no one, not even an animal
No, no, no, no, no, no one, not even an animal
