His Devotee

Lyrics

You have a way with light You make it long for you Soldier and his devotee The saddest light I've ever seen You have a way with silence Beneath your pillow, it lays sheathed Squeezing the worn leather handle A smile finds you at midnight and you mouth, "Sweet familiarity." I think, this time You forget what's mightier than swords I hold the ace And when it shows, I'm killing you with words You have an eye for the ill-fated In the mirror, you learn to keep stabbing, keep crying Keep turning scars into memories until the souls of sinners burn Don't look, it's me As bright as the whitest light can be My world, my rules One swift erase away from an amputee Swift erase away Swift erase away My world, my rules My world My world, my rules You have a way with light (You have a way with light) You make it long for you (You make it long for you) Soldier and his devotee The saddest light I've ever seen
