Love Is a Basic Need - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I'm on an island water won't reach

A Titanic diamond under the sea

Don't you be frightened, I know we're in deep

The root of all evil has flowers it feeds

That grow through the pavement and break the concrete

Only to die there under your feet

And I know everything you want

'Cause it's everything I'm not

And you're everything I'm never gonna be

Only love is a basic need

Like a volcano throws rocks in the sea

Your straight and narrow looks twisted to me

The fruit on its branches is out of my reach

I'm like an alien, I only want peace

Drop all your weapons, they're useless on me

Like air and shelter, your love is a need

And I know everything you want

'Cause it's everything I'm not

And you're everything I'm never gonna be

And I'd give everything I've got

If I'd anything you want

But I'm everything you're never gonna need

Only love is a basic need
