The light of day gives me no relief
beacuse i see you in everything

You've frozen my thoughts, You've frozen me out
I'm in the same place you left me, baby.

Oh, our ending, lit a fuse in my heart
Devouring, devouring
The night, the night chilled my bones
With a seething quiet, shaking me

Oh, our ending, lit a fuse in my heart
Devouring, devouring
The night, the night chilled my bones
With a seething quiet, shaking me

Tell me, tell me since you went away
Does the space breathe? Do you feel a change?
Is this the way you thought it would be?
Do you feel the same without me, darling?

You have my arms, you have my legs
We are one contented skin, we are in continued pain
Oh, our meeting lit a fuse in my heart
Devoured me, devoured me.

You have my arms (the light of the day)
You have my legs, we are one contented skin (gives me no relief)
We are one continued pain, oh our meeting (tell me, tell me)
lit a fuse in my heart, devoured me (since you went away) devoured me.

You have my arms (the light of the day)
You have my legs, we are one contented skin (gives me no relief)
We are one continued pain oh our meeting (tell me, tell me)
lit a fuse in my heart, devoured me, devoured me.

    Song Meaning:i cant help to think this song is about Claudia, Alejandra's twin sister and now defunct member of School of Seven Bells. It sounds like its about her leaving the group. "you have my arms, you have my legs", the twin reference. "oh our ending lit a fuse in my heart, devouring devouring." Claudia exiting the band. "tell me tell me since you went away.." Its sorta sad that she left, she always seemed like the outsider of the group in interviews.
