Lyrics

Arrogant Love

[Verse 1]

Built for one as if we're meant to learn a thing

To serve instinct

Between the wars drinks to lonely souls begin

To serve instinct

This self-willed life

[Chorus]

Fight this arrogant

Fight this arrogant love

Craving every brief encounter that can keep us in the dark

We should fight this arrogant

Fight this arrogant love

Louder tones of indiscretion

Shape an unforgiving past

[Verse 2]

Shedding tears, feel misled and laid out bare

To serve instinct

We are what's left behind when we're no longer there

To serve instinct

[Chorus]

Fight this arrogant

Fight this arrogant love

Craving every brief encounter that can keep us in the dark

We should fight this arrogant

Fight this arrogant love

Louder tones of indiscretion

Shape an unforgiving past

[Outro]

I thought that love was contagious

And that it would save us

All night long
