Keane - Love Is the End (lyrics)

"Love Is the End", a song that could easily wipe out half of those so-called "love songs". It doesn't deal with the general believing of love but with friendship, which is itself one of the purest forms of love:
"''Love Is the End'' I think is a great way to finish the album. What is says more than anything is love will out, love is the most important thing. And I think it is a great way to end the record, because there are so many questions being asked about where we are going as a species, and who we are as human beings and the notion, that hippie-ish notion that love can win is something that personally, I hold in high regard. I feel it is very important. For us as a band, that song came out of the tricky times we've had as a band. You know I think for us, as a band, the love we have for each other and the love for our music was the thing that got us through in the end. And so I do think it is a powerful thing to have at the end of the album. In a philosophical sense I think it is a very potent song. And it ends with a gong." (Tom Chaplin)
Thus, "love is the end" shall be read as "love is the purpose". A concept commonly used on Keane songs is "home" (notably on "Fly to Me" and "Hamburg Song") and it is a reference for their childhood in Battle. "Home" thus means themselves.
