Foolish Love

from Dead Animals by Brooks Strause

/

lyrics

I've got a foolish love in my heart, it should have been a mistake from the start and it's cold out here, baby, so I want you to stay and keep me warm. I spilled the salt but I didn't throw it over my shoulder and it's all my fault, I didn't mention never getting any older, but it's alright, we'll be alright my foolish love. I've got a foolish love in my head, it's about to slit my throat and leave me for dead and it's lonely here, baby, so I want you to stay and keep me company. A pretty face, a secular embrace, is not enough to give me the shivers. When your hook has been sunk the men will be drunk and feeling you inside their livers. I've got a foolish love in my soul and when it's done all it'll leave is a hole, but it's crazy here, baby, and I need you to stay and help keep it that way.
