"Extra Kings (Deakin Remix)" lyrics

"Extra Kings (Deakin Remix)"

Look back to present's past
To a time when you knew that whether ugly
Or diviner life was glowing
You jump from slow to fast
Your mind fell fleshed and stalled
But you wonder was the muscle used for showing

Did rage replace that way of knowing?
Did you fatigue confusing genesis for evidence of loss?
Does anger really feel that soothing?
This light reveals that you're more shadowy than now full-grown

And after days of black
You see it growing back
It's teaching, but your chances keep returning
That touch she offers you
The graze of someone who
You're learning, once again to stop refusing

Did shutting down make space for healing?
You find the exit stings your feeling face as evidence of death
Does walking off feel so much safer?
No extra king will ever walk with me with anyone like her

Love costs, but it's worth the grind
Love lost by the loss of time
Love work in the present life
I'm off to get lost in mine
Love costs, but it's worth the grind
Love lost by the loss of time
Love work in the present life
I'm off to get lost in mine
I'm off to get lost in mine
I'm off to get lost in mine
I'm off to get lost in mine
