Devotion Cuts

[Intro]
Depart when the building lights go out
Depart when the doors are locked (Oh, oh)
Depart when the building lights go out, depart...

[Verse 1]
Always in motion
Distant devotion cuts through time zones away
City by city, I come just to leave
And I just want to be like a bed bug
And live in your sheets
Two in the morning, I call to see if you're awake
The car is stopped and for a moment I can think

[Chorus 1]
How can I be what you need
And who you believe when I'm always gone?
I'm in debt with your understanding, girl

[Verse 2]
Remember when we first would talk?
I think what I loved most about you was your thoughts
When you call, I will just listen
If you want I can talk
As you speak, I will just listen
I don't want it to stop

I'll stand close to you so we're an easy target
The arrow, stabbing through, holds us both in place
If we were to then become a separate unit
We would have to rip where it grew in us

[Pre-Chorus]
Distance, distress
I don't say enough
How I treasure this but

[Chorus 2]
How can I show that I care
And always be there when I'm never home?
I'm in debt to your love
Most of all I just want to be

[Bridge]
Right by you in perfect silence
City by city, I come just to leave
But for now let me be like a bed bug
And live in your sheets
Two in the morning
I'm in your room, our nest
My muse up on a perch

[Outro]
White line repetition
Dotted line infestation
In a distant desert town
That's where I'll go
