The Jazz Butcher Conspiracy – Who Loves You Now? lyrics

Who loves you now? Do I?
Who calms you down
And shows you how to comply?
Whose concern is how
You contend with the pain?
Whose tender hands have touched
Your flesh and your heart
And your brain again and again?

Who needs you near? Do I?
Who knows exactly what you fear? Do I?
Who'll stand by you,
Send your temperature high?
Who'll be with you when you haemorrage, Stagger and die, dear?

Don't leave me my wretched memory,
Don't leave me now.
You get safe pills for self-inflicted ills
Who loves you now?

Who lets you out and locks you in
Who knows where you begin?
Who nestles snug inside your skin? Do I?
Who pursues you with desperate cries?
Whose fine taste only
Your death satisfies?

Who'll keep you safe and feed you right Turn brown meat into white?
Who'll taste your soft
And tender flesh tonight?
Barren-hearted, ruthless and vain:
I'm sick of waiting for the sun
To break after the rain.

We're all blind, god damn
This poison humankind
Who needs you now?
Brave sons, another generation comes
Who loves you now?
