Love Is All I Bring Lyrics by Rare Americans
I had my headphones in
I was half asleep
When the door flew open
And soaked my bedsheets
What the hell’s happening?
Everyone’s yelling
Man, there’s chaos in the street
Rats scurrying across the tracks
Trampling over each other
Like chickens caged, dead meat
I look out my window, tree shaking
Shell shocked, shackled up
Death row inmates, no escaping
I’m so close to the water man, gotta get away
Far as fast as I can, grab a quick pack
A couple of snacks
Some warm clothes, cape man
No time for a getaway plan
The earth starts shaking, the waves are breaking
It’s every man for himself
Grab the *** that you need
Get away with your help
I can escape, I will not break
I will give everything it takes
Listen to me say
Love is all I bring
I ran out the back like a panic attack
The wind bumping two hundred beats
Gotta make it up a couple of blocks
Before the water takes my feet
And I’m in way too *** deep
Saw little young pop, leash taught, soaking wet
Wind burn and getting weak
Do I stop now, try and get the little girl free?
*** it, she’s not dying ’cause of me
The tide took us both, I held her real close
Dodging capsized boats, how blessed are we?
Street signs, windows, blinds
Dead look in people’s eyes
A real catastrophe
The earth starts shaking, the waves are breaking
It’s every man for himself
Grab the *** that you need
Get away with your help
I can escape, I will not break
I will give everything it takes
Listen to me say
Love is all I bring
Me and Alfie made it outta [?] hoping a prayer
Was the first time I felt it, like God’s right there
There’s a lot more to life than a pair of [?]
No explanation as to why, life’s so unfair
Many others that day didn’t catch the fame fate
The odds for the average cat don’t really seem straight
But I will not cover, I will not cave
I was changed by the power of the waves
The earth starts shaking, the waves are breaking
It’s every man for himself
Grab the *** that you need
Get away with your help
I can escape, I will not break
I will give everything it takes
Listen to me say
Love is all I bring
