Kevin Devine - Lakes On The Moon Lyrics

Kevin Devine Lyrics

"Lakes On The Moon"

Objects at the altar
Conjuring the mantra:
"Pinwheel" - I give up your name - Let it sing my salt and strawberry tears
Edie as a dragon
Skinner at a drumkit
Letter from the night I was born
St. Francis prayer
Keep me assured
Most of the time
I can't describe the argument in me I ask it to dance
Open my hand
Offer up my cheek
We want the same thing
We want to be safe
I just don't think we should hide (anymore)
Singular obsession
Doomed to double standards
Tripping, I break into thirds
How we miss you here
At the end of our words
Bruises at the temples
Tender underwater
Frightened from punching myself
I'm angrier than I've ever felt
You always said
"I'll hold you hostage, kidnapped away, And we'll fall in love
Your Stockholm Syndrome will trick you to stay."
But you already had me
I was already yours
Whatever you do, take me too
Please and thank you
My lakes on the moon
I forgive you
My lakes on the moon
I forgive you
