What You Do for Love - Skunk Anansie

Try and step into my life

Step into a life

Where you hold nothing but your fire

Try to sooth a face, my face

Unfazed by wicked shame

No shoulders ache from blame

Just incandescent rage

I’m looking for the fight

Desperation bites

Suckered by no fantasy

It’s what you do for love

No, I don’t understand

What you do for love

No, I can’t understand

What you do for love

Try and see another side

See yourself in her, in him, in them

You’d scream for rights

In your hands you hold the tools

To crush this vicious tide

With callouses like hide

Resistance detonates inside

We’re looking for the fight

Waking up dead minds

Suckered by reality

It’s what you do for love

No, I don’t understand

What you do for love

No, I can’t understand

What you do for love

No, I can’t understand

What you do for love

Love

Comically abused

Cliché overused

Do anything to prove

It’s what you do for love

It’s what you do for love

And I can’t understand

What you do for love

No, I can’t understand

What you do for love

No, I don’t understand

What you do for love

No, I can’t understand

What you do for love
