Be Like Lightning

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
