lyrics

When the arc snaps back we will never know fear
In the meantime we laugh when we're nervous
And the pain you felt, did it ever heal
I can see you hang your bitterness higher

I could turn you into the place where I write
In the meantime I am humming at the surface
And the pain I felt, did it ever heal
If I unearth the past will it seize my desire

But I don't write it off
I don't turn to the other side

Lash back at the tumultuous mire
How disempowered we make ourselves for others
And the pain you felt did it ever heal
I can see it stand up, unerased from your mind

Can the combination exist
can you grieve and bow to it

And I am in all places at once
Intimately connected at all the right times
And the pain I felt did it ever heal
When the surface tension breaks I survive

I don't write it off
I don't turn to the other side

Now the arc is spinning just like it wants to
And your head is spinning just like it wants to
But I know something about you I didn't before
Your trust lets me in

Escape from Planet Devours

Playing synthesizer like an amazingly fun new toy, all the features of which he can't wait to explore, Devours sings, in a nice tenor, witty songs as self-lacerating as Morrissey's, without the crappy politics. voxpoptart
