lyrics

LYRICS:
We've nothing but time
While we're alive
So I let it all flood in, everything you deny

The hollow sounds
That fall from your mouth
They're not the words I want to hear from you now

Like I'm the wasted days
That leave an after taste
Of misspent youth and a babe without a name

So just take your time
For a little while
Let bumps crawl up your nose, send shivers down your spine

Chorus:
When a weak heart
Won't start
You realise
The words are lies
When a weak heart
Comes apart
Torn at the seams
It hangs on moon beams

A sleeping date
I won't be late
To break my arms around sore skin draped upon a slender frame

There's a crack of light
Eyes open wide
As your drunk tongue reveals everything that eats you up inside

Chorus:
When a weak heart
Won't start
You realise
The words are lies
When a weak heart
Comes apart
Torn at the seams
It hangs on moon beams

Then the morning comes
Whats done is done
A finger points to an open door, words say you better run

Expectations I couldn't meet
My beta male to your bitch in heat
I got the message so you didn't need to keep kickin' out my teeth

Chorus:
When a weak heart
Won't start
You realise
The words are lies
When a weak heart
Comes apart
Torn at the seams
It hangs on moon beams
