"Songhai" lyrics

A siege took you by surprise
And burnt down drawbridge
To your soul, now you're open
Mental erosion, it just ain't right
Repair yourself in my garden, girl, I won't mind
There ain't a Trojan horse through my letter
I got all the feats to commend her

So I would never, ever play her
Never, ever, ever betray her
Never play her
Never play her
Never, ever, ever betray her

Because you've been giving up your heart for so long
Since forever you don't change
And I've never seen perfection lonely
Why do you crave a light
When you're the source?
Why do you search for help
When you can stand alone?

Effort over matter, but matter ain't tangible
Put your trust in me, girl, you'll never be wrong
Call a spade a spade, go and do what you want
I can hear your spirit longing for something
I'll show you how to feel again
And keep that feeling in
Oh, baby, all because I

I would never, ever play her
Never, ever, ever betray her
Never play her
Never play her
Never, ever, ever betray her

Because you've been giving up your heart for so long
Since forever you don't change
And I've never seen perfection lonely
Why do you crave a light
When you're the source?
Why do you search for help
When you can stand alone?
