about

The deep cut. Maybe my favorite off of the new album. I also want to credit this track for reintroducing me to the electric guitar...to my bandmates peril.

lyrics

I was swayed by a mystery
Exhaled a fevered dream
A high I couldn't bare to keep
A low I know too well

I was falling
I was
I was falling in love
or something else not far from
yeah here’s my heart,
beat the drum, beat the drum,
beat the drum

I’m seeing neon
So cake my flesh in dirt and cloud
And pull my teeth
And throw me out
Into that empty space
Where love waits

You were safe from the cold
Lantern led and cautiously bold
I wanna say they broke the mold
But we’ve met before

Back when the first summer knew
That everything I saw would be you
Yet all your colors on a curfew
And my claws still white

Now I’m content to take the blame
Your eyes betray this language game
And all these words add up the same
I need to see you tonight

I’m naked in neon
So cake my flesh in dirt and cloud
And pull my teeth
And spit me out
Spit me out
Into that empty space
Where love waits

I’m seeing God
So cut me loose or turn me on
Turn me on
And rise me up like holy dawn
Like holy dawn
Cut me loose or turn me on
Cut me loose or turn me on
Cut me loose or turn me on
Honey won’t you fill this space?
Where love waits.
