Earth was shaking, whipping hurricanes
Then the flood, and You
What can you do
when the Universe has something to tell you?
Hit the files, the old cases
Heady lines with picture chasers
And all you keep; The memories squatter
It's a new day in an old year
Its a new dress with a small tear
And maybe they're right
That they are the apple and we are the bite
Its someones job to blow out the stars
Take my hand Love, it may be ours
Im ready to do it
How about you?
French Pop plays from a cracked 78
Villagers storm the gates
Long kisses and boiling oils
Dark things see the light and recoil
And were growing into something that's beyond the sum of our parts
With heartbeats that kick in fits and starts
First the Earthquake. Then the hurricane, Then the Flood. And You. (X2)
Now were walking in the daylight
No more nights, hands of sleight
Drop the masks, reveal our faces
No more big talk in small spaces
The Heart wants, the head chases
Choose your weapon...20 paces
Im willing to fire.
How about you?
French Pop plays from a cracked 78
Villagers storm the gates
Long kisses and boiling oils
Dark things see the light and recoil
And were growing into something that's beyond the sum of our parts
With heartbeats that kick in fits and starts
First the Earthquake. Then the hurricane, Then the Flood. And You. (X2)
