Heat Devil 06:51
Heat Devil I have ruined my body I have ruined my mind There will not be forgiveness Panicked feet leave the road behind Call me home Just once more Meant to be for nevermore She stands afar while waiting for burdens to go up in smoke Heat devil 2x You set fires You set fires In a row Now the sparks ignite what my darling hid for days and nights Did I pull a stunt? I don't know How can I know? I was constantly straying On the edge of my sense Now the light of destruction leads your feet while you dance You're a stone In a pond Meant to sink for everlong Crawl back into your mother's womb burdens won't just turn to smoke Heat Devil 2x You set fires You set fires In a row And the sparks ignite To a smile below you're trying to hide Was I blind or numb? I don't know How could I know? How should I know? Why would I know? Our love could have been forever But there was something in your head that told you over and over You must break the rules we set Farewell, my sweet obsession A matchbox in my hand I watch your naked body burn in a place where lovers met Our love could have been forever But then something in your head said Us will never never be again Never again Shivering air And waving straw A body, tired and lifeless held by the claws of the fire Blaming a liar Ashes fall White like snow The firestorm spits paper birds that tend to retire Blaming a liar Blaming a liar

Deep Beneath The Sea Faceless figures in the night Shapeless bodies, voices thin Their train of thought takes unknown routes To where I’ve never been I watch the skies, but I’ll never climb To such staggering heights The weight of guesswork on my mind You seemed so close, but you were far away from me In gardens overgrown And all the secrets buried deep beneath the sea I wish they were my own Drenched in doubt right to the bone Can’t say my last goodbye On the coastline of your mind Was I just a passer-by? But we’re afraid to cross that line We could not reconcile Our fragile movements, though we’ve tried So I watch the skies but I‘ll never climb To such staggering heights The weight of guesswork on my mind The thundering waves will wash away your memory The silent waters moan And all the secrets buried deep beneath the sea I wish they were my own Then we all hold our breath For beauty walks with silent steps And all the best things that we did fade into nothingness But you who‘d rather dress His inner fears in shallow chat What if you find that all those words were meaningless? My eyes, they filled with tears, I sank down on my knees In emptiness we roam And all the secrets buried deep beneath the sea Were never to be known
