J. Robbins on this song: “It’s a song that we shouldn’t have bothered to try to finish, because we worked on that song for months and months. All the bits are cool, but all of the parts are too long, like to put it into a conventional song structure is too long. It seems boring to talk about, but th...
Excandescent Lyrics
Tracing oil trails and streaks of black
Serpentine, to certainties that never leave you
Impact at the start of the escape
Far away, where no-one's coming to relieve you
Excandescent star, swallowing your heart
Excandescent star, swallowing your heart
Betrayal's bible is handmade and heavyweight
And best of all it's open ended
Excandescent star, swallowing your heart
Excandescent star, swallowing your heart
Why do you stay if nothings left to save?
Eyewitness at the gate there to validate
The claim that faith is not too far from fate
Sealed to the page, the place you might be safe
The weapon comes to cure the wound; it's overdue
You keep the evidence to prove it
And read the scraps like clinging leaves of tea
But all I see is accidents, so rise above it
Excandescent star, swallowing your heart
Excandescent star, swallowing your heart
Why do you stay if nothings left to save?
Eyewitness at the gate there to validate
The claim that faith is not too far from fate
Sealed to the page, the place you might be safe
Is this superstition the one thing to add up?
Your trust that everything will turn to dust
Is evidence enough
Betrayal's bible is handmade and heavyweight
And best of all it's open ended
Why do you stay if nothings left to save?
Eyewitness at the gate there to validate
The claim that faith is not too far from fate
Sealed to the page, the place you might be safe
