Devil in the Details - Bright Eyes

A house of cards

A supple heart

Is not a place to dwell

Now you have your cake

Don’t hesitate

Come on just do it

Come on just do it

Put it in your mouth

There is only now

Tomorrow has to wait

But know there’s no backing out

This is gonna be reality

You can never dream it down

I have no way

Of telling

The two apart

Well I made amends

In the general sense

But the devils in the details

And I know the cause

And I want to stop

But I can’t do it

I just can’t do it

There was love I meant

There were accidents

So tell me which is which

Cause I just can’t work it out

But for memory and clarity

We had better write it down

I have no way

Of knowing the truth

With time dissolves

I put the past into the ground

I saw the future as a cloud

If there’s still time to turn around

I’m going to

It’s just one day I fell asleep

And now all day all night I dream

I am the first one I deceive

If I can make myself believe

The rest is easy
