"His Love" Tegan and Sara (Augusten Burroughs)

Tegan and Sara song "His Love", the lyrics are based on the book "The Wolf at the Table" by Augusten Burroughs. Great book, love Augusten. Check out some of his other books, he's queermazing.

:{}: Lyrics :{}:
Augusten,
If I write something beautiful,
Will it squash the hurt that's living
Deep inside of you?
Augusten,
Are you just like me?
Does your hurt fade
As you write out your history?

I just wanna know how you were able
To survive so long
With a wolf at the table

Augusten,
So you were hiding in the forest
With your love still
Laid out before here
Augusten,
With that love stuck inside,
How did you ever sleep at night?

I just wanna know how you were able
To survive so long
With a wolf at the table
Augusten,
Tell me, how were you able
To control the urge to kill the wolf at the table?

His love
His love
You spoke of

Augusten,
Do you struggle for the words?
Does the right way to put it
Sometimes hurt?
Augusten,
Am I just like you?
Could I ever truly know
What I would do?

I just wanna know how you were able
To survive so long
With a wolf at the table
Augusten,
Tell me, how were you able
To control the urge to kill the wolf at the table?

His love
His love
His love
His love
His love
His love
His love
You spoke of

One, two, three, four
His love right out the door

One, two, three, four
His love right out the door

One, two, three, four
His love right out the door

His love
His love
You spoke of

His love
His love
You spoke of

His love
His love
You spoke of

@mardishaun23 Sure, if you send me your email address in a message, I'll send it :). She wrote it . Augusten Burroughs asked her to do it for his book "A Wold at the Table"

The title isn't A Wolf At The Table ? Because in the interview before the "show" where she played this song the reporter asked what was the title of it Tegan answered "A Wolf At The Table".

[OldZLand]

@DragonHendrix I saw that too, but when I downloaded it it was titled "His Love" and all the other uploads of the song have said "His Love"

The live stripped version is so much better. Much more heart and soul involved.

that off-beat percussion makes me want to punch and puppy. listening to the acoustic version from now on I guess, it's so beautiful on its own xD

[TheSnoopy1750]

I love Augusten Burroughs. And I love Tegan and Sara. But this song just fucking sucks.
