I'm on an island water won't reach A titanic diamond under the sea Don't you be frightened I know we're in deep The root of all evil has flowers it feeds That grow through the pavement and break the concrete Only to die there under your feet And I know everything you want cause it's everything I'm not And you're everything I'm never gonna be Only love is a basic need Like a volcano throws rocks in the sea Your straight and narrow looks twisted to me The fruit on its branches is out of my reach I'm like an alien I only want peace Drop all your weapons they're useless on me Like air and shelter your love is a need And I know everything you want cause it's everything I'm not And you're everything I'm never gonna be And I'd give everything I've got if I'd anything you want But I've everything you're never gonna need Only love is a basic need
