Perish

Lyrics

It was your palms and your feet and every single thing between
 We were an easy thing to do, I enthused over you
 But melancholia, insomnia, saudade, they had me
 It's hard to forget I'm looking back on a time
 When every beat in your heart was beating for mine
 You had the world at your feet, and you kicked it back at me
 I had a hole in my heart, and you didn't have the decency to wait and see
 Between the devil and the deep blue sea
 Between the angels and infinity
 There is a hideaway, a place to be for me
 And when I'm better, you can set me free
 ♪
 It's safe to say you were mine, a songbird to a morning sunrise
 And how I miss my spotless mind, I lost it to the twilight
 Much like our love, a songbird always flies without regret
 And even after everything, we perished when the sun set
 You had the world at your feet, and you kicked it back at me
 I had a hole in my heart, and you didn't have the decency to wait and see
 Between the devil and the deep blue sea
 Between the angels and infinity
 There is a hideaway, a place to be for me
 And when I'm better, you can set me free
 Every blind spot and every nicety
 I learned about your heart, I watched them perish before me
