When Love Riots

When love riots

and our hearts stay quiet,

When our words are air

and they fly away without a care,

When people turn back the clock

and all that we’ve strived for is lost,

When we lose the sight within our eyes

and the mercy within our souls go blind,

When we lose to our final fears

and the last of our courage disappears,

When humanity takes the fall

one soul will save us all,

Your soul will set people free,

You will erase this misery,

Your soul will bring light to our eyes,

Yes, your soul will break through the dark skies

When love riots

and our hearts are quiet,

Your soul will remind us all

of the love to which we have to fall.
