Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Errant heat to the star
And the rain let in
And the hawser rolls
The vessel's whole and Christ, it's thin
[Verse 2]
Well, I'd know that you'd offer
Would reveal it, though it's soft and flat
Won't repeat it, cull and coffer's that
For the soffit, hang this homeward
Pry it open with your love
Sending lost and alone standing offers
[Verse 3]
It is steep, it is stone
Such recovery
From the daily press
The deepest nest, in keeper's keep
[Verse 4]
All the news at the door
Such a revelry
Well, it's hocked inside of everything you said to me
[Verse 5]
It was found what we orphaned
Didn't mention it would serve us picked
Said your love is known
I'm standing up on it
Aren't we married?
I ain't living in the dark no more
It's not a promise
I'm just gonna call it
[Verse 6]
Heavy mitted love
Our love is a star
Sure, some hazardry
For the light before and after most indefinitely
[Verse 7]
Danger has been stole away
[Verse 8]
This is axiom
