We Were Shameless

from in "Love" by The Jet Age

/

lyrics

I come to you borne on waves
I couldn't help myself.
In bed we're tectonic plates: Irresistible.
We're burning like comets in the sky
and I'm wondering why
my life seems so far away.

My addiction is easy to see:
She's lying next to me.
Is love a dependence on an uncontrolled substance?
What's the difference?
I was dying of thirst
and she brought a chalice.
Yes, I've got a home
but in her bed we're building a palace.

Sometimes you know what you want
and you get it.
Sometimes you wake from a dream
and you never forget it.
First date in a public place,
we were shameless.
The first time was against your car
you hiked up your dress.

(Chorus)

If compulsion trumps reason,
how can passion be treason?
If love changes like seasons,
then what can I believe in?

(Pitchfork (8.0)) ... more
