DEVICS - THE STARS AT SAINT ANDREA

RED MORNING
streams of streets that seem to change you
but you know they'll always find you
no one ever really knows you
in light of the heart that beats over your head

until you listen to it
until you run right to it
there's no right way to do it
it's the light of the heart
that beats over your head
turn up the stereo
I can't hear when you talk so loud
I wanna go wherever it goes
I wanna be there in the red red red red morning

you found places to stimulate you
but you know they'll never change you
you could run forever
and find that the heart
still beats over your head
turn up the stereo
I can't hear when you talk so loud
I want to go wherever it goes
I want to be there in the red red morning

DON’T TAKE IT AWAY
Now don't take this away
I could do that too
don't take this away
I could finish you
we had one eye closed
all that time
 
follow me to nowhere
if you wanna go there
follow me to nowhere
 
you could arrange my trial
my head was heavier than light
and I got really good at telling lies
and making up a story every night
 
follow me to nowhere
if you wanna go there
follow me to nowhere
 
don't take this away
you know I couldn't end it anyway
your holiness is blinking in my face
and you could really put me in my place
 
follow me to nowhere
if you want to go there
follow me to nowhere

IN YOUR ROOM
In that room did you care
I never knew anyone who stared at me
quite like the way you’re staring at me now
and if all these empty words you speak
could change the boy who's at your feet
I think you need not look farther than your arms
 
cause I'll never change
and you'll stay the same
and I'll never change
 
if I could change the boy at my feet
to a man who didn't have to speak
I wouldn't have to use my arms to measure
something about the room that day
and how I knew I'd go away
now all I can do is stare at you
and think what I'm about to do
 
cause I'll never change
and you'll stay the same
and I'll never change
 
I stared at the light too long
and I did everything to keep from falling
when all is said and done
do you think it was worth it
patterns move across the floor
and it just doesn't feel the same I'm sorry
when all is said and done
I think it was worth it
 
cause I'll never change
and you'll stay the same
and I'll never change

MY TRUE LOVE
She'll never know
how she stole my true love
for my love
never told oh my love
locked all the proof
oh my love in his heart
girl check the holes
you never know you never know
 
he keeps the rock I gave him
in his pocket still today
keeps my picture in
a locket by his bed
all the promises he made to me
he gave to her instead
 
as the garden grows
rain and leaves cover me
girl keep the knife by your side
if you need to cut
 
how could I let it by
this time
closed my eyes and watched you
open up three doors
love is blind love is blind
now that I see you
and I know what you are
if I could........die I would
 
one day you will know
as the wind begins to blow
think about the stories
that he brings from where he goes

ALL YOUR BEAUTIFUL TREES
How many times will you keep
hitting your head against the wall
til you realize
it just makes you fall
 
all your beautiful trees
bring me to my knees
I wish I could stay here
and make a little heaven with you here
 
how many times will you go back with her
til you realize it will never work
now look what you've gone and done
can't you see she's not the one
 
all your beautiful trees
bring me to my knees
 
now look what you've gone and done
can't you see she's not the one
I wish I could stay here
make a little heaven with you here
baby I'm so good for you
and you know it's true

THE END AND THE BEGINNING
This delay is what you gave me
but that was fine
cause I would rather wait
than go down that road
the road I know so well
like mud or quicksand
I was stuck but now I'm in your hand
 
is it getting cold
I could try to move it more
are we getting old
I don't notice anymore
 
and what about the bones
hidden in a box
if everything I owned
turned this into rocks
 
is this getting close
I could try to move it more
are we going home
I can't stay here anymore
 
and how long will this go
until it changes
how long before you know
that I love you
and how long til it goes
and turns to nothing

SAFER SHORES
This is not the time
this is not the place
we could never leave here
if we wanted to
hold your tongue
until we reach safer shores that's for sure
"your a liar" she said to him
and he stood there blankly
saying nothing
how we came this far
I'll never know
I'll never know
 
well what did you expect
things don't turn the way
we want them to
so here it is
one last look
now say good bye to all those dreams you had
"liar" she said to him
and he stood there blankly
saying nothing
how we came this far
I'll never know
I'll never know

CONNECTED BY A STRING
Two sisters apart
connected by a string
never mind the bombs in Tel Aviv
never mind me chasing empty dreams
I will not go back there
and she will never leave
and so the only thing is our little string
 
the same stars above us
but miles in between
and so the only thing
is our little string
 
two sisters apart
connected by a dream
I see her in my dreams
she's always in my dreams
she was once a tiny thing
always running right to me
and I would run to her
connected by a string
 
the same stars above us
but miles in between
and so the only thing
is our little string

STRETCH OUT YOUR ARMS
Lay down and stretch up your arms
there will be no one to harm us now
I am radiating in your hand
we're in the glass
 
oh Lord tell me where to go
show me and I will follow
 
and I'll be good....
 
lay down and stretch out your arms
so I can fit right on your chest
wrap tight around me my love
it's gonna hurt when you see what you've done
 
and I'll be there...
 
oh Lord tell me where to go
show me and I will follow
you could deepen my wounds
or you could tell me that I am good
 
lay down and stretch out your arms
now I know that you meant me no harm
here in the safety of my bed
how many times must I break...
