Bone and Amber

Our love is luminous
Sparkles like a ruby does
But caught in this room with us
It’s bound to make us blue, I guess
And now all that’s left is bone and amber
Hardened by time, yet warm and tender
If it’s stuck in mud and shit
Pick it up and study it
Our love is dubious
Callous and aloof at best
Only a fool would trust
This palisade to move for us
It’s all right to brood at first
To fall into it, all immersed
But as you get through the worst
You’ll realize you’re screwed, because
All that’s left is bone and amber
Hardened by time, yet warm and tender
All that’s left is bone and amber
Hardened by time, yet warm and tender
If it’s stuck in mud and shit
Pick it up and study it
Now it may seem obvious
To everyone except one of us
That our love is ludicrous
But it’s forever glued to us
