Kevin Devine - Matter Of Time Lyrics
Sunday was short and slow and lovely
Slept in past noon, woke up, made coffee
And somewhere between the sheets and shower
We talked about the son and daughter
That we don't have but imagined at our side
Well, it's onl...
The Fratellis - I Am That Lyrics
Talk with me in your vacant tones
Take my heart in your bare hands, keep it beating
I never wanted anything but this
I never saw myself fading or repeating
So help me God I was sold
A promise from a liar
Religion for a blindf...
Kevin Devine - The Only One Lyrics
I am the only one that thinks I'm going crazy
And I don't know what to do
And I am the only son of a pastor I know
Who does the things I do
But if it was you
I don't think that it would matter
And if it was true

Chris De Burgh - Love Of The Heart Devine Lyrics
And he laid her down in a field of corn
and the sun was on his back
up above there was a clear blue sky
she held him by the hand
She had known him since they both were young
he'd been always in her life
and the first time that he had ...
Kevin Devine - Wait Out The Wreck Lyrics
I don't do that shit to myself anymore
I keep it away from me
I don't want to live like I'm dead anymore, so
Keep that away from me
We broke all the bread
Argued through every side, now
What's there to do but...
Kevin Devine - You Are The Daybreak Lyrics
It's going straight to my head:
I think I'm falling in love again
Such simple miracles have happened
Since your steady hands have come and stopped my unraveling
Your fingers, built for the piano
Work out the knots tha...

Kevin Devine - For Eugene Lyrics
My neighbors came to me
They asked if I would leave
I've got nowhere to go
I've got nowhere to go
My father built this place
In 1928
I've got nowhere to go
I've got nowhere to go
Where would I be?
My li...
Kevin Devine - No One Else's Problem Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was consumed with proving you were a liar
But what good would that do?
We both know the truth;
We were there and we lived it
But then we kept rewriting and revising it
Rehashing and repeating
It was bad for us b...
Kevin Devine - Somewhere Unoccupied Lyrics
You got some bad news
You took it face first
Like people often do
No matter how advanced
An enlightened perspective's no
Safeguard against
A real life
With its nosedives
Its gutter lows
Its sunrise heights
I heard y...
Cliff Richard - The Touch Of Your Lips Lyrics
The touch of your lips upon my brow
Your lips that are cool and sweet
Such tenderness lies in their soft caress
My heart forgets to beat
The touch of your hands upon my hair
The love in your eyes a shine
And now at last, the moment...
Kevin Devine - What's Keeping Us Young Lyrics
Now you're in the mirror
Sketched over me
My curve of my smile
And the cut of my teeth
Gave me a mouth back
With heat in my blood
Courage to carry it
I hope you gave me enough
I learned from my mother
Her heart is sha...
Kevin Devine - Little Bulldozer Lyrics
Some nights, I bolt and sleep in the car
From the hood, talk at your face in the stars
I tell you versions of everything
We share a smoke in the dark
I need you c-c-c-closer, Little Bulldozer
Wake up - I'm nowhere, drifting d...
Kevin Devine - Bloodhound Lyrics
When I was a boy
I dreamt like a man
I knew something was coming
And I should be waiting
I was assured
The ground wouldn't hold
All those nights in my bunk bed
Learning to float
That's how I got here
With a broke...
Kevin Devine - Private First Class Lyrics
Private Manning standing in a court room
Pleading guilty; she shouldn't have to
Truth be told, she should be floating down parade routes
But - the truth WAS told, and what good did that do?
If it was you
You might wish you...
Kevin Devine - 11-17 Lyrics
I thought I was in love
It felt like it from close up
But someplace to spill my blood
Was all it ever was
I felt I was in debt
Each night spent in your bed
A dream I let drop dead
And never had again
You were the moon ...
Kevin Devine - No One Says You Have To Lyrics
'I can't say I'm underrated
I can't say it, so -
I can't say I'm underrated
But I know, I know, I know.”
She says, 'Watch your ego, baby.”
She says, 'Take it slow.”
She says, ...
Kevin Devine - I Can't Believe You Lyrics
I know you're underneath there
Waiting on an air supply
To feed your darkest secret
The one that's keeping us alive
You blame me; I don't blame you
We've traded places over time
Anger's only fear gone de...
Kevin Devine - Working In Quiet Lyrics
I go to the places where you are
I find you hanging out
I paste my eyes wide open
And I turn everything inside out
I am turning into everything I hate
And you are graceful and absolutely fake
I am fake
I hear you laughing, am ...
Kevin Devine - Harvest Moon Lyrics
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away
But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's ...
Kevin Devine - Cotton Crush (Matter Of Time Version) Lyrics
And the bricks get laid
And they get torn up
And laid again
But the bricks always get torn up again
And your friends won't wait
So don't believe that shit
When they say they'll wait
Cause trust me; your frien...
Kevin Devine - Freddie Gray Blues Lyrics
I'm talking Freddie Gray blues
I'm talking what happened to you
You were just 25
When they ended your life
When 'to serve & protect”
Meant break your leg, snap your neck
Meant to kill you, to sever your spin...

At first we step into the garden of our life alone.

Kevin Devine - Guard Your Gates Lyrics
You were savaged and shook by the cretinous crooks in your crib
On the 5th of July, all that grease from the night on your lids
From the crypt of your room, drilled a hole in the moon, where you hid
'Til your power supply shorted...

Kevin Devine - Couldn't Be Happier Lyrics
Out in the crosswalk
Reeling after you
Shot through with a soft shock
Rescued and renewed
The world still showed sharp teeth
Angled at our throats
But you said, "We're an army
And I won't let them close."

Cierra Ramirez - Matters Lyrics
Kevin Devine - Between The Concrete & Clouds Lyrics
Walked in the world, became a Catholic
Their oil and their guilt
Somewhere in high school switched to atheist
Your anger and your will
Turned twenty five freaked out by everything
The bodies piled up
Fled to your mind when they ...
Kevin Devine - I Don't Care About Your Band Lyrics
I don't care about your band
I thought I could; turns out I can't
I mean no malice - I promise, man
I just don't care about your band
But I care that you're an honest guy
An ambassador for peace & light

Sara Bareilles - You Matter To Me Lyrics
I could find the whole meaning of life in those sad eyes
They've seen things that you never quite say but I hear

Because you ma...
Kevin Devine - Sleepwalking Through My Life Lyrics
Some days stand up
Fixed at attention
Some days race by too fast to mention
Those days I wonder if I'll ever get it right
Sleepwalking through my life
Sometimes I'm sure
Most times less certain
If anything's ...
Kevin Devine - Safe Lyrics
"You can't hurt me forever, James
If that's what you're trying."
Your mother, the Capricorn
Warned your father, the Lion
While you from your bleacher seat
Texted, "Hey Brian

Kevin Devine - Before You're Here Lyrics
Watch your mother in the ocean
Hopeful doubts and freckled face
The nurses call "Congratulations!"
So now you're both alive on every wave
I love you before // you're even here

The Weeknd - I Was Never There Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What makes a grown man wanna cry? (Cry, cry, cry, cry)
What makes him wanna take his life? (Yeah)
His happiness is never real (real, real, real, real)
And mindless sex is how he feels, ooh, he feels

Kevin Devine - Hand Of God (When You Breathe... Breathe) Lyrics
In the hand of God there's a cattle prod
That keeps shocking us along
'Til we're flung from roofs without parachutes
To fill the patches on his lawn
There's an iron gate where patrolmen wait
To keep the chos...
Kevin Devine - I Used To Be Someone Lyrics
Fix your eyes at middle distance
Rich queens, fur fezes, twin ridiculous
Avenue of the Americas
Between 45 and 46
Debt clock married to its uptick
A trillion brilliant blinking digits
Oh, the overwhelming evidence

Kevin Devine - The Worm In Every Apple Lyrics

Though there's music sounding sweetly in my home
And I admit I get confused by each arbitrary muse
But every dog is duty bound to chase his bone
Seems like everywhere I lo...

Kevin Devine - Both Ways Lyrics
You can't be the bully
Then conveniently claim you're oppressed
Can't blow people's countries apart
And demand that they clean up the mess
Can't be a bank baron oligarch
Then plead, "brother, spare...
Kevin Devine - Redbird Lyrics
Daydream dying
Covered corners, jigsaw mind
Black site
Flood lights
Halls of hornets
My oh my
It's getting weirder
Than I projected
It's saying something
In all directions:
"I held the fear in my mouth
