perish - holding absence lyrics
[verse 1]
it was your palms and your feet, and every single thing between
we were an easy thing to do – i enthused over you
but melancholia… insomnia… saudade – they had me
it’s hard to forget i’m looking back on a time, when every beat in your heart was beating for mine
[chorus]
you had the world at your feet and you kicked it back at me
i had a hole in my heart, and you didn’t have the decency to wait and see
between the devil and the deep blue sea
between the angels and infinity
there is a hideaway, a place to be for me
and when i’m better you can set me free
[verse 2]
it’s safe to say that you were mine – a songbird to a morning sunrise
and how i miss my spotless mind, i lost it to the twilight
much like our love, a songbird always flies without regret
and even after everything, we perished when the sun set
[chorus]
you had the world at your feet and you kicked it back at me
i had a hole in my heart, and you didn’t have the decency to wait and see
between the devil and the deep blue sea
between the angels and infinity
there is a hideaway, a place to be for me
and when i’m better you can set me free
[outro]
every blind spot and every nicety, i learned about your heart…
i watched them perish before me
