Lyrics for Bright Lights
Cast your mind back to the days, When I pretend' I was OK. I had so very much to say, About my crazy livin'. Now that I've stared into the void, So many people, I've annoyed. I have to find a middle way, A better way of givin'. So I haven't given up, But all my choices, my good luck... Appear to go and get me stuck, In an open prison. Now I am tryin' to break free, Be in a state of empathy. Find the true and inner me, Eradicate this schism. No-one can take it away from me, And no-one can tear it apart. 'Cause a heart that hurts Is a heart that works. A heart that hurts, Is a heart that works. A heart that hurts, Is a heart that works. No-one can take it away from me No-one can tear it apart. It may be elaborate fantasy, But it's the perfect place to start. 'Cause a heart that hurts, Is a heart that works. A heart that hurts, Is a heart that works.
