dEUS - Dark Sets In

The sweat had sunk into his sheet
The moon was lighting up the street
He pictured her in some strange place
bathing in some stranger’s heat
If heaven’s you, then hell is me

He closed his eyes to better see
All images taking turns
Then suddenly like in a dream
He’s watching him, touching her

And knowing well the earth will rebel
And knowing about nature’s curse

But that was just a bad excuse
There wasn’t even much to lose
So many lives that he could choose
He chose the wrong one now he’s thinking

Inside, outside
You’re tearing me
For the love of your skin
Just tell me where have you been

Inside, outside
You’re tearing me
And it don’t mean a thing
Just tell me where have you been

Is this the dark setting in?

Imagination if you dare
Can take you almost everywhere
He’s howling like a lonely wolf
But acting like something scared
(This is not happening, god set me free)

He tried to hold the clamour down
Silence never seemed so loud
He never looked for what he found
Another storm behind the clouds

Inside, outside
You’re tearing me
For the love of your skin
Just tell me where have you been

Inside, outside
You’re tearing me
And it don’t mean a thing
Just tell me where have you been

Feelings come and feelings go
But no one really wants to know this one, baby
You can trust it like your meanest friend
It don’t suck up, it don’t pretend
Like a big slow motion accident
It will fuck you right up in the end
Now watch it

dEUS - Easy

When your heart is wilting
And your chips are down
When your soul is pining
For a friendly sound

When you curse the sun
For it's easy ray
And you eavesdrop
On yourself that way

Give your heart a little pause
You are more than your flaws
Get it out of their claws
Every breath that you draw
Will be easy
Will be easy

So you think a mountain

And the sea
You escape your own
Gravity
Away from the occupier
He stole your spark
Now he wants your fire

Oh my love where you been
I am trying to come in
From the cold gambling
Cause my heart needs a win
Make it easy

Every step that you trace
Every dream you will chase
Give your heart a little space
You will find that your days
Will be easy

dEUS - Twice (We Survive)

A promise that was never made
Implied from the beginning
And passion that had never failed
To convince us we were winning

Too smitten to be just a flirt
Too loose to be connected
I gave you less than you deserved
And less than you expected

Cause twice I set my mind on you
And twice I gave you nothing
Twice you showed me what to do
And twice it came to nothing

Beneath the surface of desire
You hope there’s something sacred
Hallowed ground a holy fire
To warm us when we’re naked

So tell me why you want to stay
You’re so impatient anyway
For something that will never ever happen
You say come on let’s pick a fight
With all that try to steal our light
From now it’s you and me united
Tell me why am I so frightened
I don’t know

Cause twice I set my mind on you
And twice I gave you nothing
Twice you showed me what to do
And twice it came to nothing

So tell me what we’re gonna do
Feels like I’m stuck here in a loop
Of you and me and me and you
Forever
There’s more that 20.000 ways
To end up in the same old place
Only one to get away
Only once you get a second chance
So why do you want to stay

That’s the day you repeat the day

dEUS - Keep You Close

You were young, you had time on your hands
And I, was a rollercoaster of the kind
that needs to ride so high
To dive so low
All the time I had to keep you close

Now I finally know how it must of hurt
To see all of the love and care only work
A little while and then I'd go
All the time I had to keep you close

What you feel is what you get
You know there is no answer fit
We broke the code so long ago
I'm going to keep you ever close
Just like on the day we met
You pulling on me like a cigarette
So like the sea holds to the shore
I'm going to keep you ever close

Now the years have a way to make you forget
That we're still in the same place
No hurry yet
The path we're on is the path we chose
I'll still remember how to keep you close

Linger on, linger on in the scheme of things

We are only inhabiting our own dreams
They don't come true, it's the way it goes
And in the meantime I will hold you close

What you feel...

So is this what they mean about moving on
Is this really the end you won't stick around
The one that stays, you're the one that throws
Out the one that has kept you close

And is this definition of constant change
A transformissionof what we hope stays the same
Cold's the breeze that forever blows
Warm are the hands that have kept you close

Coldness is what lays ahaed
So when I see you should I just pretend
The flower's cut but it still grows
I'm going to keep you ever close

Just like on the day we met
I'm pulling on you like a cigarette
So like the sea holds to the shore
I'm going to keep you ever close
