Sacred Heart

Can you remember when those days left?

When we were setting off, fingerprints in the pavement

Cement was set and tough

Danced along past the twilight, made of sacred stuff

We bloomed too soon

Now we're breaking through a long bathroom door

Listening to voices that we used to ignore

Get ourselves together, now we're back out on tour

Bless our sacred heart we used to adore

Well, can you leave your light on?

Take it back to the better days

When we were starting up

Football games out on the green

Shoes and Sketchers on

In a suit so clean, you'd watch the dirt dry off

Did we bloom too soon?

Barely look ourselves in the mirror

The closer we get, the image gets a bit clearer

The smell of cigarette permeates the room

We bless our sacred heart, we bloomed too soon

Can you leave the light on?

Get it back to the growing pains

When our parents were still in love

A big far world we hadn't seen yet

Our words could be enough

Deep breath in, chest starts squeezing

Like a dream we paid off

I bloomed too soon for you

Now I'm breaking down on the stages

I'm screaming in the rain

I wish that someone would tell me

That's clinically insane

I find it easy in the morning

To dissipate the shame

I bloomed too soon for your heart
