This Side Of Love

We're on the negative side of love

I'm subject to all bizarre whims she fancies

I'm running escape to find the handle

Of the door she locks me up in

She's on the laughing side of sin

What have I done in all my past lives

To end up on this side of love?

We're on a permanent twist of fate

She has dominion over time and torture

I'm pinching myself to convince me that

I'm in a living nightmare

The killer attraction of a dare

The killer attraction of a dare

What have I done emasculation

To end up on this side of love?

If I should stay

Will the beat go on?

I must be strong

We tell you everyday

Will I return

To normal lovers again?

Please peel my skin

'Cause my soul is burning

We're on a roundabout whirl of scorn

The demons are smiling and the angels snoring

I feel like a stepchild Caesar that's been

Beaten and bruised to please her

Wearing a rusted ring of thorns

What have I done to piss the Gods off

To end up on this side of love?

If I should stay

Will the beat go on?

I must be strong

We tell you everyday

Will I return

To normal lovers again?

Please peel my skin

'Cause my soul is burning

We're on the negative side of love

I see my condition as a sign of service

I snuggle up close to her knowing

That I'm practicing my religion

Warming the barrel of a gun

This will be the deed that finds me next time

On this side of, on this side of

On this side of this side of love
