A.M. Davis - Tempest / Conflict of Interest Lyrics

Your eyes were an ocean
And I was endlessly lost in an endless sea
Your hands were scales
They weighed me up, balanced me, weighed me down and challenged me
Your heart was a desert
By day it scalded me but by night it froze my feet
Your mind was a labyrinth
I never knew which way to turn when we would meet

I am unchanging
But you are a changeling

You'll never see me fade
You'll never see me fray
You'll never rearrange
The faces that I paint

My eyes were a window
They let you see through the pain, to see that love remains
My hands were cushions
They softened the blows as I watched the chaos of your mind unfold
My heart was an anvil
Heavy as steel, but just as strong, and with room to heal
My mind was a fortress
But I let my defences down and had to go to ground

I am unchanging
But you are a changeling

You'll never see me fade
You'll never see me fray
You'll never rearrange
The faces that I paint
