found in you Lyrics

Black smoke, all I see is black smoke

White stone, don't know if I'll see it again

For all this dark in my head

I know the sea has a mind of its own

A mind of its own

And maybe it'll cradle me

If the smoke doesn't swallow me whole

I gotta attest to the devotion

Of the things that stand in motion

And maybe I didn't know

But the gears still go

The well-oiled machinations

Of the beasts all in their stations

I try to see their faces

But my focus is replaced

With all these blackened veins

From beak to reins, they're carrying me

To the bottom of a slick pit

Of the bones of sycophants

Where all the vengeance just tastes like rust

Where I bit my tongue

And the blood in my lungs

Is runny as the rest of me

Cause I found in you

What I lost in me

A beating heart and clarity

Oh, I found in her

What I lost in me

Sanity

Sanity

She held me down

Mercenary for a caravan

Reminded me I was just a man

She's brilliant blue, but ruddy too

In those sharp, sharp eyes

She's gone in the blink of an eye

I shouldn't be intrigued, should I?

Her bags are as heavy as mine

But she makes mine feel so light

She could kill me in an instant

But there's something so insistent

About the comfort that brings

You don't have to fear devils

When the woman in your bed

Will end them swiftly

And jostle you awake from that slick pit

Of the bones of sycophants

Where all the vengeance

Just tastes like rust

Where you mustn't be afraid of wild things

That can't be tamed

Or you'll never learn to tame or to trust

Oh, I found in you

What I lost in me

A beating heart and clarity

Oh, I found in her

What I lost in me

Sanity

Sanity
