Heart on My Sleeve

I’m a smokescreen

And I’m clear blue skies

I’m a warm hug and I’m a watchful eye

I am curious, but I toe the line

I’m at ease but I’m sweating underneath

I’m so calm but I’m raising the alarm

I wear my heart on my sleeve

But I keep that jacket safe at home

Yeah I’m an open book

Only just as far as chapter one

Eventually you’ll maybe see every corner every street

But it takes time baby for a heart like mine

I am both/and

But I’m black and white

I’m a free bird

If we’re talking as the crow flies

I’m a good time but I’m sad at the baseline

I’m a green light going slow just in case

I’m sounding fearless whilst I’m thinking afraid

I wear my heart on my sleeve

But I keep that jacket safe at home

Yeah I’m an open book

Only just as far as chapter one

Eventually you’ll maybe see every corner every street

But it takes time baby for a heart like mine

I lay my cards out on the table but I keep a few behind

I cut right to the chase I’m already running

I’m telling you the truth, I promise you that’s all I ever wanna do

What you see is what you get but honey its a complex

It’s a complex its a maze into my head

It’s a lot, it’s a mess but its needing you wanting you

There’s a line, there’s an end

There’s horizon up ahead

Stick it out, don’t leave now, I’ll make it worth it some how
