They stood up for love

Ok, so I do have one more thing to say before I go back to bed.

I mentioned to someone the other day that I'd rediscovered Live.
Funny thing is I'd never really been a fan they where just another one of those bands that was always just there, never really stood out to me except for maybe "dance with you" which I've always liked.
I think I may have posted the lyrics at some point. But thats not actually what I wanted to say. :P
What I was actually going to say is that maybe rediscovered live was the wrong term, turns out that I actually only discovered one song that for some reason had never caught my attention before and yet now I cant seem to get rid of it, firstly because well I like it and keep listening to it (lol go figure that one) and secondly because the lyrics just seem to speak to me on a totally different level to anything else and that hasn't happened in a long time, ok except "push me to the floor" but thats a WHOLE other story :P I also can't seem to get it out of my head, it's been there for days and nothing seems to want to replace it, not even "push me to the floor " seems willing to win this fight.
So I'm going to surrender, post the lyrics and crawl back into bed and tomorrow I may just have a post for you about why this particular song is suddenly so cool or maybe not :) If you feel like a little homework give the lyrics some thought you'll be surprised what you come up with, I certainly was

Have a good one guys :)

Live
They stood up for LOVE

naked lovers feel the blood beneath their veins
electric nerves communicate
with tiny explosions through our brains
who is this energy that never left or came?
give rise to passion the only glory
of this human story

I give my heart and soul to the one

we spend all of our lives goin` out of our minds
looking back to our birth, forward to our demise
even scientists say, everything is just light
not created, destroyed but eternally bright
masters in everytime lord in everyplace
those who stood up for love down in spite of the hate
in spite of the hate

who put the flower in the barrel of that gun?
who lit the candle that started the fire,
burnt down the fortress, the throne?
who could house all the refugees in a single shack
or a lowly bungalow?
who lives in a different dimension, free from the
struggles we know?

I give my heart and soul to the one

we spend all of our lives goin` out of our minds
looking back to our birth, forward to our demise
even scientists say, everything is just light
not created, destroyed but eternally bright
masters in everytime lord in everyplace
those who stood up for love down in spite of the hate
we spend all of our lives goin` out of our minds
they live in the light

we made it to the moon
but we can`t make it home
waitin` on a rescue that never comes
made it to the moon
but we can`t make it home
maybe home is where the heart is given up
to the one
to the one

we spend all of our lives goin` out of our minds
lookin` back to our birth, forward to our demise
we spend all of our lives goin` out of our minds
they live, they

they stood up for love
stood up for love
stood up for love
they stood up for love
stood up for love
stood up for love

we spend all of our lives goin` out of our minds
masters in everytime
we spend all of our lives goin` out of our minds
stood up for love
