Kevin Devine - All Of Everything, Erased Lyrics

Send "All Of Everything, Erased" ringtone to your cell

This is the window where

I watched the future start

My pupils dilated

The shock sped up my arms

I shut my ambushed eyes

And turned my face towards the heat

I felt the city choke

I heard the world at war

I prayed for providence

God said, don't pray no more

You went and made your mess

Now keep your blame off my feet

So I got off my knees

I faced the devil's day

The sky was murder red

The streets were headstone gray

A flaming ferris wheel

Spun where the sun used to be

I watched it's buckets dip and dance

I saw a couple making love lock hands

They were pushing for abandon and the answers it could bring

90 million miles from the graveyard growing over everything

I saw my lover chased

Through fields of sugarcane

She clutched her belly close

And whispered, "keep us safe"

They ground her down to dust

No more miracles today

I dreamt myself awake

In a resort hotel

Above a golden coast

Beside my Southern belle

We heard the sea reborn

In each singing shell

And every coughing car

And every coiled snake

And every shrieking star

And every burning stake

Dissolved to atmosphere

All of everything, erased

I spread into a distant hum

I droned along with everyone

And the earth grew green and nursed herself to what she used to be

All our senseless shouting calmed to quiet in her ancient memory

And oh, what a joy,

To be free.
