Devotion Cuts - Hail the Sun

Depart when the building lights go out

Depart when the doors are locked (Oh, oh)

Depart when the building lights go out, depart

Always in motion, distant devotion cuts through time zones away

City by city, I come just to leave

And I just want to be like a bed bug

And live in your sheets

Two in the morning, I call to see if you’re awake

The car is stopped and for a moment I can think

How can I be what you need and who you believe

When I’m always gone?

I’m in debt with your understanding, girl

Remember when we first would talk?

I think what I loved most about you was your thoughts

When you call, I will just listen, if you want I can talk

As you speak, I will just listen, I don’t want it to stop

I’ll stand close to you so we’re an easy target

The arrow, stabbing through, holds us both in place

If we were to, then become a separate unit

We would have to rip where it grew in us

Distance, distress

I don’t say enough

How I treasure this but

How can I show that I care and always be there

When I’m never home?

I’m in debt to your love

Most of all I just want to be

Right by you in perfect silence

City by city, I come just to leave

But for now let me be like a bed bug

And live in your sheets

Two in the morning

I’m in your room, our nest

My muse up on a perch

White line repetition

Dotted line infestation

In a distant desert town

That’s where I’ll go
