Devotion Songtext
I think you’ve mistaken
My desperation
For devotion
For devotion
I walked bedrock
Exposed and barren
Disappeared into the mountains
Knocked on every door
Until one opened
And I felt my arms, rise light as feathers
And the clock hit me like a hammer
And my eyes roll back like porcelain
And the breeze cool me like aspirin
And I cried
If you see my lip start quivering
Don’t mistake my breaking open
Breaking open
For brokеn
I thought I knew how to listen
Until the hair on my skin
Rosе in tongues
Ancient, unspoken
Then came the glow
Of a single candle
Through the blinds In the rising sun
My desperation
For devotion
For devotion
I walked bedrock
Exposed and barren
Disappeared into the mountains
Knocked on every door
Until one opened
And I felt my arms, rise light as feathers
And the clock hit me like a hammer
And my eyes roll back like porcelain
And the breeze cool me like aspirin
And I cried
If you see my lip start quivering
Don’t mistake my breaking open
Breaking open
For brokеn
I thought I knew how to listen
Until the hair on my skin
Rosе in tongues
Ancient, unspoken
Then came the glow
Of a single candle
Through the blinds In the rising sun
