The Staves - Devotion Lyrics

And it seems you want to hurt me

No matter where I go

Theres a future I can’t know

So how could I know

Now it seems you want to love me

At a future facing down

At a fall thats coming round

And where will I go?

And you’re telling me I’m grown

How sweet

Life in the backseat

And its happening again

And its happening again

And you’re carrying me home

How sweet

Life in the backseat

And its happening again

And its happening again

Devotion be the death of me…

I could blow the fucking windows out

Leave them dragging down the road

Your affliction isn’t mine to hold

And how should I know how to?

And you’re telling me I’m grown

How sweet

Life in the backseat

And its happening again

And its happening again

And you’re carrying me home

How sweet

Life in the backseat

And its happening again

And its happening again

Devotion be the death of me…

Don’t you deal me no favours

Don’t you sell me no line

I’ll call you back when I’m sober

Or at some other time

Well I’m right here beside you

But its never alright

And I’m no winner

I’m no winner

I’m no winner

I’m no winner

Blazing and strong

I’ve been awake too long…

And you’re telling me I’m grown

How sweet

Life in the backseat

And its happening again

And its happening again

And you’re carrying me home

How sweet

Life in the backseat

And its happening again

And its happening again
