Given Lyrics

i want to stop thinking of love, dreaming of love, defining love.
i want to feel the earth below me...ravish me.
given: the waterfall, the illuminating gas.
the bachelors: suitors at my call.
i used to dream of love as a machine;
myself as the motor, erotic energy.
i'm ready to experience this love, to look beyond this glass, leave concept for reality.
i want to feel the water immerse me...consuming me.
i want to leave behind this lauded virginity, to experience love, to be taken by love.
i want to feel the sunlight upon me...overpower me.
given: the waterfall, the illuminating gas.
the cinematic blossoming: halo of the bride.
i used to diagram love as a machine;
myself as the motor, erotic energy.
