Diktat

"To have and hold for all eternity"

Limitations and ambitions are a pretext to falling

short

We'll be doomed, marooned and two fatalities

Anomalies in whispered circles

For pledges we could never hope to fulfil

But if it works for you

Then it works because of you

Not a diktat from a guild

For who love is (unflinching) servitude

Castigate or deprecate - they want heads hung in shame

When a union runs its course

For pledges we could never hope to fulfil

Irrepressible, irresponsible love

Is the wild-eyed antitote to cold imperatives

Love is the wild-eyed antidote

To cold imperatives

Love is like the last day you'll ever live

So why lose that spark

When our paths begin to merge?

It's the yoke of absolutes - those pledges

We could never blight in compliance

Love is the wild-eyed antidote to cold imperatives

Love has since been hi-jacked to tether down its whims

Obey, obey, obey so the passion dilutes

Obey, obey, obey, obey, obey, obey, obey

Perhaps under angry clouds of the imagined higher force

Refrain, refrain, refrain

From ending on a high note

Refrain, refrain, refrain, refrain

Refrain, refrain, refrain

Perhaps under angry clouds of the imagined higher force

Perhaps it's this and other such constraints

From which we must divorce
