The Joy Formidable - Cicada (Land On Your Back) Lyrics

The Joy Formidable Lyrics

"Cicada (Land On Your Back)"

Look in the eye and watch the door
The mountain is humble and it's yours
Three reds in the rock, their secrets ring
A cross in the sand will let you in

Darkness and light
Nothing to choose
Follow them all until it soothes
Land on your back and flap my wings
It's not for the sleeping that I sing

Cicada
Be my witness
Cicada

Hungry to see a clearer road
Sweep us away into the flow
Handle the curse and be the what you want
Riding the storm, here comes the turn

Why do I cry
The wind it knows
That nature is law, no man it grows
So show me a way that I can leave
The journey begins when I believe

Cicada
Be my witness
Cicada

Cicada
Don't be shaken
Help me stay obscene

Every moment like the first fight
Don't stop, cicada
