[Verse 1]

How I regret what I must do

But you left me no choice

Though I still strain, I can't recall

The beauty of your fey voice

Now that I've heard come through the walls

A song I've heard many times

I must return all you gave me

In the company of swine


[Pre-Chorus]

We had found sacred ground

Oh, we had found sacred ground

You burn down


[Chorus]

I thought you sang so tastefully

But now I see I was wrong

Your serenade turns to filth when I leave

So please cut the love song


[Verse 2]

How I regret what I must do

But you must be replaced

For I cannot go on suffering

Such simple and common tastes

When you met my eyes

You sang to me of passion, pain and will

When I blinked, you turned away

To kiss the hand of filth


[Pre-Chorus]

We had found sacred ground

Oh, we had found sacred ground

I'll burn down


[Chorus]

I thought you sang so tastefully

But now I see I was wrong

Your serenade turns to filth when I leave

So please cut the love song


[Bridge]

Tell me, who will hear

Your voice, your song

When the smoke has cleared

And the lights are gone?

Tell me who appears when I'm gone


[Chorus]

I thought you sang so tastefully

But now I see I was wrong

Your serenade turns to filth when I leave

So please cut the love song


[Chorus]

I thought you sang so tastefully

I see I was wrong

This serenade turns to filth when I leave

So please cut the love song


[Refrain]

Cut the love song
