Japandroids - Evil's sway lyrics

rate me

The sun lays low on a solemn city

All I see is sexual red

The last rays burst through between the train cars

And shine directly on my head

So come and find me in this moment

And expose a passionate man for what he is

We'll cut loose our gold

Cause we need fire

And only kindling can buy it

Wildness is our treasure

So boldly surrender

To me and to the night

On the lash

And lashing out

It's evil's sway tonight

A candle's pulse is no companion

When all you see is sexual red

You burn away your dreams inside a journal

And leave those primal words unsaid

I'll run to find you in this moment

And expose a passionate woman for what she is

We'll cut loose our gold

Cause we need fire

And only kindling can buy it

Wildness is our treasure

So boldly surrender

To me and to the night

On the lash

And lashing out

It's evil's sway tonight
