Gyres Songtext
at the alter of your departure
repenting on bended knee
while you pull away from that barbed embrace
you stop waiting on the absentee

sever and split
the amputee
the phantom limb
buried in apologies overdue
and calling out with those muffled hymns

stargazing drifting refugee
you are a light bound life boat
i'll follow you to any destination
if you'll keep me afloat

and we've got to stop shoving and reaching
across these fault lines
cut the precious stone
and i will stand beside you through the seasons of air
or I will fall on my own

and you say you want that simple life
well you know I'm no simple man
but I will surrender myself to you completely
if you want me, take my shaking hands

stargazing drifting refugee
you are a light bound life boat
i'll follow you to any destination if you'll keep me afloat

we're still searching for those happy endings
and it'll take some time
I want to look back on these chicken scratch years
with you in my arms
with some _____? bar smiles intertwined
