the amazing devil - the calling lyrics

[verse 1: madeleine hyland]
back then i was dauntless
and dawn could never know
and my weakness made me weep less
than i would ever show you
i’d burn so bright it blinded
now i know that light guided me here

[verse 2: madeleine hyland]
i walked into the river
to wring those embers from my broken heart and broken liver
you’ll never get your dinner if you don’t learn how to get along
and a fox somewhere is hiding
that light i thought was blinding brought me here

[pre+chorus: madeleine hyland & (joey batey)]
i look into the waters
and see a face i don’t understand
wе’re both unwanted daughters
but thеre’s more than water in these autumn hands
i look into the waters and see a face i don’t recognise
who’s this
(who are you)
what changed i ask
so strange, she replies
[chorus]
[madeleine hyland]
shoulder the sky
open those eyes
there’s a kind of calling
calling

[joey batey]
i can’t wait to show you
how much i know you can be
just let the rain come
let the rain come down, down, darling
can’t you hear it howling you
it’s calling, calling

[background noises]

[verse 3: madeleine hyland]
back then i wasn’t hopeful
but now my ink’s blood red not black
and i’ll blink like ripping envelopes
in the hopes that you’ll write back
and on the banks of that river
i shiver as a fox stands frozen
and i close them, i close them, i close my eyes
[verse 4: madeleine hyland]
‘cos i’m between that just one more and drank too much again
and i promise you i’ll write i love you
with my fingers on your sleeping hand
and when that fox howls i’ll howl with it
in its cries i’ll find an end
and when i think i’m fine you’ll visit
and then you happen to me, you happen to me all over again

[pre+chorus: madeleine hyland]
in the waters i see a face i don’t want look back
do you like my dress, it’s got pockets
the rocks beneath my feet begin to crack

oh i look into the waters
long ago that current caught us and we tried
i tried i really f+cking tried
but the rain kept coming down
i watch that woman drown

[4x chorus]
[madeleine hyland]
shoulder the sky
open those eyes
there’s a kind of calling
calling
[3x choir & 1x joey batey]
i can’t wait to show you
how much i know you can be
just let the rain come
let the rain come down, down, darling
can’t you hear it howling you
it’s calling, calling
[madeleine hyland]
in the rainfall
