For Love Instead Lyrics by Bryan Scary

Evil Arrows

2015

[Verse]
There was a robbery
At the gallery
A man took a bullet right in front of me
He was twitching his fingers and saying a prayer
And the evidence lingered, but nobody cared
And the bottles were popping, and the ticker was tocking
And the party was flying - BUT THE MAN HE WAS DYING!
And...
[Pre-Chorus]
All the jokers watched in camaraderie
Like a paradigm of lobotomy
Not a single tear was shed
So I went red - I might have fled
But battled on For Love Instead
[Chorus]
Oh my very soul is only natural
When I'm getting ahead I turn around and cry For Love Instead
[Verse]
There was an accident
At a tax event
A man got a razor in the back of him
I think he was plastered - it didn't make sense
But none of the bastards had any intent
On giving out orders, on getting things sorted
Or calling the medics - it was fucking pathetic!
But...
[Pre-Chorus]
There was something dipping inside of me
As a fatty lipped to the right of me
He was talking about daily bread
I turned my head to cut him dead
But then I smiled For Love instead
[Chorus]
Oh my very soul is only natural
I leave things unsaid - I bite my lip and dip with love instead
[Verse]
Had a love affair
But I was never there
I need to be working to get anywhere
She might have been perfect, she might have had traits
I couldn't be certain - and I sure couldn't wait
To get caught in a marriage, to be taken to Paris
To be honored and cherish - I just couldn't care less!!
But...
[Pre-Chorus]
She was always approaching with energy
And I didn't want to be enemies
So after we broke the bed
I held her head - and tears were shed
I stayed her friend For Love Instead
[Outro]
That's right - I am a very loving person
