Devil's In The Details
They're not kicking in the doors, they're just changing all the locks They're not burning all the books, they're just redesigning the blocks Of text until the meaning's gone, until the truth is blurred Until the revolution is a misremembered word The evil's not a monster, it's a memo and a pen In the hands of tired, smiling, ordinary men Who draft a thousand pages of a scripture of subtraction A quiet, slow, and legislative, terminal transaction It's a gospel of nostalgia for a time that never was And it justifies the cruelty with a paragraph and clause They're turning back the clock, not with a bang, but with a tick A quiet little poison that is designed to make you sick 'Cause the devil's in the details, and the devil's in the fine print In the footnote of the law that's got a malevolent glint They're not stealing your whole future, just the parts that let you choose It's the slow and steady victory of those who love to see you lose Yeah, the devil's in the details, the comma and the date The bureaucratic patience of a well-constructed hate. They're not building any prisons, they're just making smaller cages By redacting all the hope from history's most sacred pages They are experts in the art of making freedom look like sin And makin' you believe the walls are there to keep the danger from within They will tell you it's for safety, they will tell you it's for grace While they're engineering the extinction of a time and of a place Where a person could be complicated, messy, and alive Now the only thing they ask of you is that you quietly survive It's a gospel of nostalgia for a time that never was And it justifies the cruelty with a paragraph and clause They're turning back the clock, not with a bang, but with a tick A quiet little poison that is designed to make you sick 'Cause the devil's in the details, and the devil's in the fine print In the footnote of the law that's got a malevolent glint They're not stealing your whole future, just the parts that let you choose It's the slow and steady victory of those who love to see you lose Yeah, the devil's in the details, the comma and the date The bureaucratic patience of a well-constructed hate. So read it all twice over, every single word they write The darkness is not coming in the middle of the night It's arriving in the daytime, with a lawsuit and a smile And it's asking for your patience, just for a little while. 'Cause the devil's in the details, and the devil's in the fine print In the footnote of the law that's got a malevolent glint They're not stealing your whole future, just the parts that let you choose It's the slow and steady victory of those who love to see you lose Yeah, the devil's in the details, the comma and the date The bureaucratic patience of a well-constructed hate.more

deep waters
Deep Waters pulls you under with layered textures and a hypnotic rhythm. ------------------Lyrics-------------------- I remember the day I almost drowned Washed out on the shore Just seeing The light and noise in my mouth Blurry eyes I feel like I died, that part of mine was oceans apart Blurry eyes I feel like I died, that part of mine was oceans apart Was oceans apart Was oceans apart One step, two steps closer I'm not giving in Head to toe in water I'll just let it in Fright is just my soldier to defend from pain One step, two steps closer Can I let you in, let you in One step, two steps closer I'm not giving in Head to toe in water, I'll just let it in Fright is just my soldier to defend from pain One step, two steps closer Can I let you in Can I let you in Can I let you in, let you in Watch out for deep waters Cause, baby, you may drown Free-falling Don't be hesitant Keep up with the petals Falling down your hands Deep waters, deep waters Did I let you in? She loves me He loves me not She loves me He loves me not She loves me He loves me not Watch out for deep waters Cause, baby, you may drown Rush in with your lover Just don't let her drown She loves me He loves me not She loves me He loves me not She loves me He loves me not She loves me He loves me not more
