Devil's Spoke lyrics

That I might be a part of this
Ripple on water from a lonesome drip
A fallen tree that witnessed me
Him alone, him and me
 
And that life itself could not aspire
To have someone be so admired
I threw creation to my kin
With a silence broken by a whispered wind
 
All of this can be broken
All of this can be broken
Hold your devil by his spoke
And spin him to the ground
 
And root to root and tip to tip
I look at him, my country drip
Leathered up by all his fears
But someone brought you close to tears
 
Many trains and many miles
Brought you to me on this sunny isle
And what of which you wish to speak
Have you come here to rescue me?
 
All of this can be broken
All of this can be broken
Hold your devil by his spoke
And spin him to the ground
 
But the love of your life lives but lies no more
And where she lay a flower grows
The arms that fed and the babes that wed
The backs that bled keeping her in tow
 
But I am your keeper
And I hold your face away from light
I am yours till they come
I am yours till they come
 
Eye to eye, nose to nose
Ripping off each other's clothes in a most peculiar way
Eye to eye, nose to nose
Ripping off each other's clothes in a most peculiar way
