Hozier - Abstract (Psychopomp)

Sometimes it returns like rain that you slept through That washed off the world, the streets looking brand new I will not be great, but I'm grateful to get through The feeling came late, I'm still glad I met you The memory hurts, but does me no harm Your hand in my pocket to keep us both warm The poor thing in the road, its eye still glistening The cold wet of your nose, the earth from a distance See how it shines See how it shines See how it shines See how it shines Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Sometimes there's a thought, like you choose what you're doing But it comes to naught when I look back through it I remember the view, street lights in the dark blue The moment I knew I'd no choice but to love you The speed that you moved, the screech of the cars The creature still moving, that slowed in your arms The fear in its eyes gone out in an instant Your tear caught the light, the earth from a distance See how it shines See how it shines See how it shines See how it shines Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Darling, there's a part of me I'm afraid will always be Trapped within an abstract from a moment of my life The weeds up through the concrete, the traffic picking up speed All my love and terror balanced there between those eyes See how it shines See how it shines
