Unconditional Love from The Lonely by Domini Forster

Two o’clock came round
It was clear you wouldn’t show
As they carried her past
The pews in the front row
Were you in your fortress
Trying not to think of her
And as the years fall behind you
Will you feel remorse

What does it take to break
Unconditional love
When do you choose
To cut yourself loose

When you both were little
She would follow you around
Wear your dresses like secrets
Spinning round and round
But caught up in your dreaming
Of a life of finer things
You were always going somewhere
Quick to cut the strings

What does it take to break
Unconditional love
When do you choose
To cut yourself loose

Sister, little sister
They’re lowering you down
Do you know she isn’t with us
As we gather round
Would it break you open
Light a fire in your chest
Or is death the great destroyer
Of all that human mess

What does it take to break
Unconditional love
When did you choose
To cut yourself loose

What did it take to break
Unconditional love
When did you choose
To cut yourself loose
