Devotion Cuts

Depart when the building lights go out
Depart when the doors are locked (Oh, oh)
Depart when the building lights go out, depart
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
How can I be what you need and who you believe
When I'm always gone?
I'm in debt with your understanding, girl
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
Distance, distress
I don't say enough
How I treasure this but
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
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
White line repetition
Dotted line infestation
In a distant desert town
That's where I'll go
