Be Like Lightning Songtext
von Seeming

I′ve been told that love is patient
Like a sniper, like a snake
But I know that love is also blind
Asleep when it's awake
And it′s tricky love's a hippy
But it's sure no pacifist
Love′s a storm that comes from nowhere
Black and unafraid to go where
It′ll birth you with an incandescent blitz, huh

So be like lightning
Incidental in your fire, in your fire
In your striking
Be the chaos, be the chaos love requires

Love dismisses all the angry boys
It's bored with the police
It electrocutes them, effortless
No thought of their release
That′s the kind of love that makes you
That's the rain cloud you obey


In the swiftly rising rivers
In the flooding of the gutter
Love will drown the world and wash it all away

So be like lightning
Incidental in your fire, in your fire
In your striking
Be the chaos, be the chaos love requires

Be like lightning (sudden)
Incidental in your fire, in your fire
In your striking (summoned)
Be the chaos, be the chaos

There was nothing in the world before the spark
No light to give a name to the dark
It was nothing in the world before the spark
No light to give a name to the dark

Be like lightning (forever)
You′re just happening and happening
And happening and happening
And happening and happening and striking (whatever)
And unraveling and dazzling


There was nothing in the world before the spark
No light to give a name to the dark
It was nothing in the world before the spark
No light to give a name to the dark

Be like lightning, be like lightning
Be the chaos, love requires
Be like lightning, be like lightning
Be the chaos, love requires
Be like lightning
