The third track shared in advance of Purity Ring’s sophomore album another eternity, after “push pull” and “begin again.” It was first revealed on Huw Stephens' BBC Radio 1 show.
“repetition” can be heard at the 8:28 mark during the interview.
Some of those tracks that I made I thought definitely...
[Intro]
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray
[Verse 1]
Tell me that you wanna move me 'round like that
I will watch your lips curve in a smooth combat
Make your way in through my tears and I'll relax
If you're the truest one, I'm gonna make you a season
Climb up in my rattling spine and I'll contract
Tell me I'm the only one and I'll move back
If you see your daydreams in me, they'll not lack
What's been weighted in me, I'll make you quake with reason
[Chorus]
Watching me is like watching a fire take your eyes from you
Hope it isn't repetition
Though that's the only thing that keeps and takes you
Watching me is like watching a fire take your eyes from you
Hope it isn't repetition
Though that's the only thing that keeps and takes you
[Verse 2]
I can feel your knees sinking into the bed
Searching in my dark eyes to break what’s been said
There’s a wake of grace, hunting your soreness down
There's a light in my skin that's been dimmed
I'mma dig you up and give you what I took
Pull you up and tuck you in and make you look
I'ma smooth your shoulders down and calm what's shook
It was all forlorn, if only for a season
[Chorus]
Watching me is like watching a fire take your eyes from you
Hope it isn't repetition
Though that's the only thing that keeps and takes you
Watching me is like watching a fire take your eyes from you
Hope it isn't repetition
Though that's the only thing that keeps and takes you
[Post-Chorus]
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray
[Interlude]
It was all forlorn, if only for a season
[Chorus]
Watching me is like watching a fire take your eyes from you
Hope it isn't repetition
Though that's the only thing that keeps and takes you
Watching me is like watching a fire take your eyes from you
Hope it isn't repetition
Though that's the only thing that keeps and takes you
[Outro]
Even though it's the only thing that keeps and takes you
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray, pray, pay
Hey, hey, pray
