Seven Devils

Release: 2011 

Holy water cannot help you now 

A thousand armies couldn't keep me out 

I don't want your money 

I don't want your crown 

See I've come to burn 

Your kingdom down 

Holy water cannot help you now 

See I've come to burn your kingdom down 

And no rivers and no lakes, can put the fire out 

I'm gonna raise the stakes; I'm gonna smoke you out 

Seven devils all around you 

Seven devils in my house 

See they were there when I woke up this morning 

I'll be dead before the day is done 

Seven devils all around you 

Seven devils in your house 

See I was dead when I woke up this morning, 

And I'll be dead before the day is done 

Before the day is done 

And now all your love will be exorcised 

And we will find your sayings to be paradox 

And it's an even sum 

It's a melody 

It's a battle cry 

It's a symphony 

Seven devils all around you 

Seven devils in my house 

See, they were there when I woke up this morning 

And I'll be dead before the day is done 

Seven devils all around you 

Seven devils in your house 

See I was dead when I woke up this morning, 

And I'll be dead before the day is done 

Before the day is done 

Before the day is done 

Before the day is done 

They can keep me alive 

'Til I tear the walls 

'Til I slave your hearts 

And they take your souls 

And what have we done? 

Can it be undone? 

In the evil's heart 

In the evil's soul 

Seven devils all around you 

Seven devils in your house 

See I was dead when I woke up this morning 

I'll be dead before the day is done 

Before the day is done

Spectrum

Release: 2012

When we first came here, 

We were cold and we were clear, 

With no colours on our skin, 

We were light and paper-thin. 

And when we first came here, 

We were cold and we were clear, 

With no colours on our skin, 

'Till you let the spectrum in. 

Say my name, 

And every colour illuminates, 

We are shining, 

And we'll never be afraid again. 

Say my name! 

As every colour illuminates! 

We are shining! 

And we'll never be afraid again! 

Say my name! 

As every colour illuminates! 

We are shining! 

And we'll never be afraid again! 

And when we come for you, 

We'll be dressed up all in blue, 

With the ocean in our arms, 

Kissing eyes and kissing palms. 

And when it's time to pray, 

We'll be dressed up all in grey, 

With metal on our tongues, 

And silver in our lungs. 

Say my name, 

And every colour illuminates, 

We are shining, 

And we'll never be afraid again. 

Say my name! 

As every colour illuminates! 

We are shining! 

And we'll never be afraid again! 

Say my name! 

As every colour illuminates! 

We are shining! 

And we'll never be afraid again! 

And when we come back we'll be dressed in black! 

And you'll scream our names aloud! 

And we won't eat and we won't sleep! 

We'll drag bodies from their graves! 

So say my name, 

And every colour illuminates, 

And we are shining, 

And we'll never be afraid again, 

Say my name, 

As every colour illuminates. 

Say my name! 

As every colour illuminates! 

We are shining! 

And we'll never be afraid again! 

Say my name! 

As every colour illuminates! 

We are shining! 

And we'll never be afraid again! 

Say my name! 

We are shining! 

Say my name! 

Say my name! 

And we'll never be afraid again!

What The Water Gave Me

Release: 2011

Time it took us

To where the water was

That's what the water gave me

And time goes quicker

Between the two of us

Oh, my love, don't forsake me

Take what the water gave me

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

Pockets full of stones

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

And oh poor Atlas

The world's a beast of a burden

You've been holding on a long time

And all this longing

And the shields are left to rust

That's what the water gave us

So lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

Pockets full of stones

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

'Cause they took your loved ones

But returned them in exchange for you

But would you have it any other way?

Would you have it any other way?

You could have had it any other way

'Cause she's a crueller mistress

And the bargain must be made

But oh, my love, don't forget me

But I let the water take me

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the over flow

Pockets full of stones

Cosmic Love

Release: 2010

A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes

I screamed aloud, as it tore through them, and now it's left me blind

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart

And in the dark, I can hear your heartbeat

I tried to find the sound

But then it stopped, and I was in the darkness,

So darkness I became

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart

I took the stars from our eyes, and then I made a map

And knew that somehow I could find my way back

Then I heard your heart beating, you were in the darkness too

So I stayed in the darkness with you

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out

You left me in the dark

No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight

In the shadow of your heart
