Ode to life : William Oxer & Device

The Kiss from 2014

William Oxer is a refined British artist whose subject matter is centered around love and sensuality which he effortlessly portrays in a sincere way, his figurative art expresses unity and an emotional longing. "Who says" by Device is a rollercoaster of emotional ambiguities, a inner struggle for freedom, a fight between lust and love.

Lyrics:

The night is warm and my body wrecked
and the hair stands up on the back of my neck
Oh yeah it's in my hand and we shouldn't stop
but before I took the last shot something in my head went no...
It doesn't matter what you say
How can you hope to hide away
Weren't we looking for the same thing?
Who, who, who says it's not that easy to walk away from you
Who, who, who says it's not that easy to ... walk away ... from you
And if we take this temporary tumble in the dark
don't reach for the hammer, don't hit me in the heart
Breath deep like a beast when you're rockin' my device
Set loose like an animal...just another sacrifice
Then you ran wild through the streets with your wheels on fire
an the last thing you needed was to see me turn around
and say, 'no!'
It doesn't matter what you say
How can you hope to hide away
Weren't we looking for the same thing?...
Who, who, who says it's not that easy to walk away from you
Who, who, who says it's not that easy to ... walk away ... from you
(watch me walk)
