Description
This new EP is an illustration of how in order to move forward, sometimes we must reach further back. The band has become distinctly more masculine in tone. Gone are the female backing vocals and the melancholic voice of the violin. This recording is now paired down to five men and their instruments. The songs, which have been chosen to record, were written as a series. All with the exception of Lay With Me, which was written earlier and served as the lyrical catalyst to this album.
Lyrics
Come down and lay with me, lay with the devil and I'll set you free... Lay with the devil and I'll set you free... Lay with the devil and I'll set you free... She's standing in-front of me and all she needs is love. She's waiting and wanting me and all she needs is love. I know how hard it can be, when all you need is love... Why... Why... Why... Why... Desire it drives me, it drive me to no end . It drive me to my end, with vicious fiendish results. It weighs on me, it carves my identity, burying me in a heap of emotion. Desire it kills me, it kills me while... while I wait. It kills me in my dreams. It turns when I sleep. it's crooked as a tree and rootless as a sheep. She's standing in-front of me and all she needs is love. She's waiting and wanting me and all she needs is love. I know how hard it can be, when all you need is love... Why... Why... Why... Why... She's standing in-front of me She's standing in-front of me She's standing in-front of me Come down and lay with me, lay with the devil and I'll set you free... Lay with the devil and I'll set you free... Lay with the devil and I'll set you free...
