Lyrics for Song: Devil In The Details
Lyrics for Album: Digital Ash in a Digital Urn [2005]
A house of cards...
the supple heart is not a place to dwell.
Now you have your cake. Don't hesitate.
Come on and just do it. Come on, just do it.
Put it in your mouth. There is only now.
Tomorrow has to wait.
But know there's no backing out.
This is gonna be reality. Y
ou can never dream it down.
I have no way of telling the two apart.
Well, I made amends in the general sense...
But the devil's in the details.
And I know the cost, and I wanna stop...
But I can't do it. I just can't do it.
There was love I meant.
There were accidents.
So tell me which is which
cause I just can't work it out.
But for memory and clarity, we had better write it down.
I have no way of knowing the truth with time...dissolves...
I put the past into the ground.
I saw the future as a cloud.
If there's still time to turn around,
I'm going to.
It's just, one day I fell asleep...
And all day, all night I dream
I am the first one I deceive
if I can make myself believe the rest is easy.
